ReadyMade Video: How to Make Stitched Stationery

[EccentricPuzzle]

I JUST got a sewing machine for this purpose. Thanks so much for posting, I'm going to give it a shot. *Wipes sweat off of forehead*

[FrugalAli]

This project would be a great project for frugal scrapbooking. I'm going to have to give this a try for some of my layouts.

[puffylittleshoes]

What's the make and model of this sewing machine? Thanks.

[snuunuu]

This is a nice idea. The music is a bit too loud, though. And you can't just lower the volume or otherwise you can't hear what Becky's saying.

[LuckyJim100]

Becky, your obviously an intelligent pretty girl, but what on earth possed you to waste your life at a sewing machine doing this crap. Go get drunk and have sex at least once in your life, please.

[sarahshevett]

I like this idea. Something else to sew!

[neverarcher]

QUEER!

[vibrantenergy]

I wish I knew how to use a sewing machine. :)

[Tuftaffety]

nifty.

What's a "messege"?

[Goodpurpose]

okay sorry but why put so much effort in making a card that someone throws away in like 1-2 days?

[PneumaticMuffin]

some people keep their cards.

If you put some effort into it, the chances of the card being kept goes up.

you put an effort into something someone is going to keep, you dont put effort into things that are going to be thrown away.

Thanks for sharing that. I love handmade cards. When I need a project to cheer myself, I paint small watercolors and then make them into birthday cards to have on hand. I personalize them right before I give them. (Ignore the vulgar little 13-year-olds on here who have just learned new cuss words.)

[Lundadeuna]

Whatever happened to cards with balloons or dogs wearing straw hats while driving a convertible down route 66? If you could stitch that I'd be really impressed. Cute idea though.

[artemisfair]

and sew it with your own skin woven into thread, please. That will make it better. I will definitely buy that card.

[Lundadeuna]

That sounds like an awesome idea, Stephy-poo.

[artemisfair]

Woa creepy. Who is this? lol.

[Lundadeuna]

Haha, sorry, didn't mean to creep you out. It says your name on your profile ;)

But seriously, me creepy? You gave me images of my own skin stretched out like an old brown paper bag woven with green thread -- while I was eating!

[artemisfair]

OH! I forgot about that profile thingy.

LOL sorry about that, just teasin' ya. :)

[artemisfair]

Oh and I almost forgot...

"Hello Clarice..."

hehe

[foresight41]

fascinating - how about posting a few more samples of your work

[abadplanner]

Fucking waste of time... may as well use a shit stained piece of toilet paper... just as attractive.

[silverojo]

Nice idea, but that's a horrible piece of paper to use as an example. Nobody wants to get a birthday card made with ledger paper....

[makemagazine]

Cool idea!

[Gorfickle]

Pretty cool

[twisterit]

SWEET will this work with newspaper?

[artemisfair]

probably not, because newspaper is so thin. Maybe a few pieces glued together, but I foresee it ripping and getting stuck in your machine to be perfectly honest.
