Fabric Fusion


I saw some packs of canvas shapes for sale in my local craft store, and decided that I could make my own for a tenth of the price, so off I trotted back home and scoured the internet for cotton canvas by the metre.  Said canvas has arrived, and I've made some shapes.  And I have a lot of canvas left :)

So I thought I'd stamp on a piece, because the challenge at Waltzingmouse Fanatics is to use fabric (as well as Waltzingmouse stamps).


And I liked the inspiration photo in the latest FUSION challenge, specifically the cushions:
BTW:  What is WRONG with Blogger?  Errors on saving, errors previewing.  It's almost like you have to wait till it's not looking before you can complete your post.  Talk about having a hissy fit.

    Love your take on the inspiration - those two grey lines behind the beautiful canvas are perfect! And I'm having the same hissy fit Blogger issues. God help us all if it shuts down! lol!

    A cushion card ... how brilliant ... so creative, so inspired, Shirley ... love those super neat frayed edges! I'm only hissy fitting with Blogger for commenting and have taken to copying before hitting publish, otherwise I lose it all! Just a thought ... Wordpress??! Anita :)

    Fabulous! I really like the flower stamped canvas and the way you've used the same colours in the sentiment. Great work. Thanks for playing along with Waltzingmouse Fanatics!

    BTW - I know what you mean about Blogger - keeps giving me errors too, but still working.

    Wowzers! This is fabulous! The cushion in the inspiration photo is gorgeous and so is your card! The amazing stamped burlap panel (sweet!!!) looks awesome against the two simple grey stripes!

    Winner, winner for sure!

    (...heck, not sure if I even want to post my card now that I have seen this beauty!)

    Simply Stunning Shirley!
    I love the bold colours you stamped your flowers and the fabric adds real texture to them. The way you stamped the sentiment is so creative too.
    Thanks so much for playing along in our Fabric challenge.
