I made this Greeting card set for my friend's birthday. My friend loves to sew and I thought that I would make her some cards using my Hero Arts Sewing stamps. My goal was to enter this in the Hero Arts Challenge that ended on August 26, 2010, but I did not have the chance to enter because I did not finish on time. (I kept getting one interruption after another.) That's OK, I figure that I can't always get things done when I want to and that sometimes things don't always happen the way you want them to. The cards were easy to make, but my problem is that i always seem to have difficulties with the clean and simple cards and I have a hard time making up my mind on the type and color paper to use. I spent too much time deciding on the paper and color and ended up changing my mind several times.
This set is an inspiration from Jennifer McGuire. I truly love her work and her creativity is awesome. To see the card and video that these cards are modeled after, please go

Stationery Box: Stamps used are Hero Arts; Sew Artsy CL446 and Stitch N Time CG183.
