The paper pattern paper is 'Sew Pretty' by Aspire Crafts and also the Handmade sentiment. The women dressed is a Raspberry Road Design. The Tape measure paper is an unknown. I have glued them all to sheets of thin card before trimming down to size and distressing around the edges using a TH. distress tool.
I have adhered to a blank scalloped edge card base and the sentiment is a Britannia word die cut. The scissors and cotton reel are mdf cut outs from Scrap Matts and the green thread from my stash.
As I have used snippets of card from cereal boxes to glue the papers onto I can hop over to Di's blog and enter the playground. I haven't played on the swings in such a long time. I'm not going near those pogo sticks or the pond.
Entering into the following challenges:
Pixie's Crafty Workshop #296 and 297. Use up your snippets. (bits of cereal boxes).
Allsorts challenge #432. Use at least two DP's.

A fabulous card Valery, with the distressed edges of the card it looks as though it material fraying slightly. Just right for a stitcher.

What a wonderful card Valery, love the dresses and all the embellishments. I've noticed patterns for these 1950s dresses in the sewing shops, so your card is right on trend, Kate x
Beautiful card Mrs A - it's made me all nostalgic for the days when I used to spend hours rummaging through paper patterns in fabric shops

She will put this at the top of her favorite sewing-theme cards from you, Anne! It full of wonderful vintage details and reminds me of all the patterns I used to drool over in the fabric store, wishing I could afford to buy and sew all of them!! Hugs, Darnell
