The Tailor of Gloucester

I do love sewing cards and I have used some Reddy Decoupage from Crafter's Companion for this card. I added the decoupage to a die cut tag cut from Core'dinations and added some faux stitching, seam binding, baker's twine, buttons and a cute little wire coathanger. The hinges were made with a Marianne sign die.

An adorable card. The decoupage is such a cute image and the buttons and little coat hanger are just the right embellishments to go with it.

Happy Crafting!!! :) X X
