This week over at Mojo Monday, there is a fabulous sketch and it's Verve contest week over there too! My card today uses the Mojo Sketch along with some fabulous dies: Tagged Rectangle and Wavy Hearts. My sentiment comes from a newer set called Surely Goodness. To keep with the "groovy" theme, I stamped some small chevrons from Borderline onto my wavy heart and added one single silver sequin.
I have to admit being a novice with a sewing machine but I wanted to try letting my end stitches hang free and not tuck them in. I think it works for this card but I definitely see that doing this wouldn't work all the time!!!
Here's the sketch from Mojo Monday this week......
