When it comes to my childhood, I think about my lovely mom. She is a talented women. She used to sew a lot back then but now she stops. She made curtain, bed sheet, blanket, pants and so forth. When we were young (with both of my sisters), my mommy made us a lot of scrunchies out of the pieces fabric that have to be trashed by her sewing company. I was impressed because she knows how to make all these things without teaching by others. Also, she made us pajamas. It was so lovely and beautiful....thanks a lot, mom.
This week, Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge is showing some childhood memory. I have made this project with sewing theme that tight closely with my mom. Enjoy.
This project, I used 6*9 in. clasp envelope. I got this idea from Prima Makerting Gallery. I think it is good idea that make a window like that and also can fit dimensional embelishments instead of making a shadow box. I used one of the Prima Lace stamp, Tim Holtz stamps and the one that look like script is from Inkadinkado. I used Walnut Stain distress ink to distress the edge of the whole envelope and for stamping too. I also used Fired Brick distress ink on my stamping.
This window is cut by using Tim Holtz Bigz Die Ornamental and the image I got inside the envelope are from Clearly Vintage (

For this flower, I used Tim Holtz Tattered Florals die. I used two of the medium flower and used tweezers to give it a texture and twist. In the middle is the baby prima that I made which is inspired by Prima Makerting.
