| My daughter's rag quilt. |
I also made a set of free instructions to go along with the May 2014 card sketch provided by my friend Anne Marie at the Coffeehouse forum and used it as the basis for my rag quilt card.
1. Download the free cutting instructions and assemble your cards.
2. Trim twelve 1 x 15/16" pieces from a sheet of the Dark Blue Print from the Club Scrap Dungarees kit. Don't freak when you see the 15/16" measurement; it's just a little shy of 1". (The squares are not from the cutting instructions listed above.)
3. Fray the edges of each square with a Tonic paper distressing tool.
4. Rub Silver Gelatos along the edges of each square.
5. Adhere squares vertically onto to the Light Blue panel for a perfect fit, and attach the matted Dungarees Greeting quote during final card assembly.
Hope you will give this technique a try. Enjoy your freebie!
P.S. Stop by my Cape Cod Scrapper blog for a peek at three more cards created with the sketch.
Cute idea! TFS!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fitting technique for this kit, thanks for the sketch
ReplyDeleteJulie, I love this so much! And the way you interpreted the sketch could work for the NBUS challenge too - instead of using patterned paper for the quilt squares - you could use your littlest stamps to fill them in.... great technique, tfs!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I just love how this turned out.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Roni! Really cute Julie.
ReplyDeleteJulie, I love this so much. I'm going to give it a try.
ReplyDeleteWOW! How exciting, I've never won anything!! How cool is that ~ thank you thank you!
ReplyDeleteI love the rag quilt design...it works perfectly with these papers! Looks like a jean quilt I saw at a quilt show this past holiday season!
TFS!

ReplyDeleteJulie, unfortunately, I can't download the instructions without signing up for something.
ReplyDeleteI figured it out!

ReplyDeleteFantastic and fun technique for the denim paper, Julie! Cute quilt, too!!
ReplyDeletethat is a cute card and love the rag quilt. I know how hard they can be to make. Well for me it was since I made 14 of them for Christmas gifts. to fit a crib mattress
ReplyDeleteCute card; I like the NEBUS idea too!
ReplyDeleteMy security program said it detected malware on the site or to report a false positive. I'm a little jumpy since my last computer seized/was infected/died. So, I just hand copied the directions.
BeeL
Adorable, just adorable!
