The layout was inspired by a card designed by my very talented friend my Amanda Wayer. I sponged the oval and Rebel's uniform. Then I added just a hint of color with my Copics.
Come join the fun at the Hoedown. Let's see what you can "stitch" up.

True Rebel
It's Hoedown time again. This week's challenge is to use Rebel with the sentiment by Hambo Stamps to "stitch" up a card. You can use real, faux or hand stitching. Since I've never sewn on a card before, I decided dig out the sewing machine and try it. It was easy. I kept it simple for my first try, just a straight stitch for a border. I think I'm ready to try a zigzag stitch next time!
