A fat quarter is 1/2 of 1/2 yard of material - 22x18. I ripped it into about 15 pieces and sewed it on to card stock. You'll probably get tired of the egg material before I'm done with all the cards! (grin)
I did this card for Gingersnap Creations challenge - QUOTE. When I broke down and bought the Tim Holtz bird/birdcage die, I decided I needed to use it A LOT. The quote is from an ARTISTIC OUTPOST set: SERENITY. The quote is "A bird does not sing because she has an answer. She sings because she has a SONG."
After sewing the material down, I pulled the loose threads out up to the sewn edge. Its pretty easy to do with cotton fabric.Stamps: Artistic Outpost SERENITY

p.s. I have two sewing machines that haven't been used in years. You may be the ONE who inspires me enough to break one out. Thanks!
Deb, what a great idea!!! Except, I'd probably use glue instead of sewing machine. I will never tire of your egg fabric. I will always be envious of you for your creative use of such things.
ReplyDeleteoh what great fabric, I doubt I would get tired of seeing it! more more.... Such a fun card too. I'll be watching to see what else you do!
ReplyDeleteeeeek, Deb, I love this!! You are just brilliant!! I can't wait to see all the creations you make with that fabric!!!
ReplyDeleteLove, love, love it!!! This is so beautiful and has so much interest - the frayed fabric is so pretty and such a creative touch. I will never tire of anything bird/egg/nest related! :) Thanks for playing along at Gingersnap!
ReplyDeletelove the egg material and what you did with it is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThe frayed edges look great!
ReplyDeleteOK, it takes me a while (or reading the posts in reverse chronological order), but now I get it -- the eggs are a material print. How clever of you to use them; I never think to use fabric on cards! And they are amazing -- I can understand how they inspired you to create so many amazing cards in such a short time!!
