Creations by Patti: A Sewing Themed Birthday Project

I love how these pieces all came together. These are for my friend: Linda, who makes patterns for garments using the computer. The dress form was previously posted on April 18, 2014 and can be found here. Added to this grouping is a card and a notebook. The notebook is a pre-made cover - all I had to do is decorate the front cover, add decorative paper to the inside, then add the notepad. The notebook cover was a random find at my local scrap warehouse so I am not sure where they can be purchased. I only got my hands on a few of them to decorate. Does Black and Kraft card stock look great together?

Card: finished size is 5-3/4 x 4-1/2". Decorative paper is from Graphic 45, their Kraft Reflections Collection Bits and Pieces #4500480All pieces are cut using my Silhouette. The SVG cut file is from The Cutting Cafe called the Sewing Machine shaped card found here. The sewing dial is a computer printed and is a PDF file from the Sewing Machine shaped card set.
