Tim's birthday is on January 7th, so I decided to make him a card of sorts using the Frayed Fabric technique. I hope he likes it.
I added Velcro so that the card can be closed, and perhaps Tim can use it to store mementos of his times at Disney. |
A pocket inside stores a gift card. |
Supplies:
I hope your hands get creatively dirty soon!

This is such a cute and thoughtful project, I love the fabric and stitching. I love the thread colors and how the red and white fabric looks like tissue tape. Maybe it is tissue tape.
