Moxi Fab World/Shabby and Vintage

Hello everyone.  I have another card to share today.  I made a card for the Shabby and Vintage challenge at Moxi Fab World.  This is my style and what I feel most comfortable doing.  I love all the lace,doilies, satin ribbon, and Seam Binding.  One thing I have been doing lately is making my own stick pins for embellishments on my bows and using 2 different colors of seam binding for the bow as well.

I also stitched on top of the card.  Another sure way of adding to a shabby card.  And I used 2 different Glimmer Mist colors to the doily.  Wheatfields and Gold.  I love how the black stitching looks as a contrast to the bright yellow paper.

Supplies:
Cardstock: PTI/Kraft
DP: October Afternoon
Vintage image: Off the web
Seam Binding: Memire Mare
Stick Pin: Handmade by me

Thanks so much for stopping by.  I hope you all are enjoying your week so far.

Moxi Fab World/Clean & Graphic

Hello.  Is everyone having  a good week so far?  I sure am.  I have been getting a lot of cards made.  This one is for the Moxie Fab World clean & graphic challenge.  Can you believe that this is the first one I attempted out of all their challenges for this card style week?  I figured it would be best to get the one out of the way that I would have the most trouble with.  I actually spent over 2 hours studying the clean and graphic style before I made this.

One would think that this style would be the easiest because there is so little on that card.  Well, from this shabby/vintage girl it wasn't easy.  I was proud of  myself in the end.  I think it turned out pretty darn good for a first try on this style.  What do you think?

I broke out my Dot Spot set from PTI.  I got this set when it released and haven't used it yet.    I like it especially for this style.
