It was craft playtime with FSC teemie Dot today and on my card I used a Finnabair stamp from the ‘Never Too Late’ collection.
It is a new addition to my stamp collection (Andrew calls it stamp obsession but there you go). The butterfly stamp is also one of hers which I have had awhile.
Did a bit of freehand machine stitching around the card to add an extra piece of dimension.






I didn’t know there was a new set! Dangerous news for a fellow stamp obsessed…
Beautiful stamps & background Shirl! xx
This has turned out great Shirley! Love seeing the finished piece, a nice finish with the sewing too! The background looks amazing, and so many layers in such a clever way!!!

Wow! Your dark stitching looks fabulous around the card, Shirl, especially with the textured white framework. I like the white halo around your encouraging woman… But more than anything, it is your message repeatedly shown, with the freed caterpillars who have become their true selves, that I really LOVE. Gorgeously done, Shirl! Hugs, de
Hi Shirl,
I haven’t visited you for a little while now, I’m sad because I really love your blog and your art (having the same rubber obsession I think lol).
Hope you ar well… Fabulous card here as usual!!!
You will have soon some news from me (I chose your name of course among the others of course!), I don’t tell you anything more, to keep the surprise teehee… 🙂
Big crafty hugs,
