Old card or die day.......Friday................

here is a card I made for a friend for her birthday in March 2013..........................
 
she used to do a lot of sewing (although I don't think she has the time these days) but still thought it was appropriate for her..........................
 
the die cuts are from Tim Holtz - aptly named the Sewing Room.................



 
some bakers twine wrapped around the bobbin and through the buttons and striped grosgrain ribbon cut lengthways and frayed to make the 'skirt' and CE pearls for the necklace.................
 
mounted onto an embossed piece of card and layered with black and cream card, which has been die cut with some SB basic scalloped oblong die (these were some of the first dies I bought)............. 
 
Old dies - Old card - double whammy!!
 
Thanks for looking in.
