I made this card quite some time ago and forgot to post it. I thought it would be a great card for someone that sews as a hobby so I thought it appropriate to create a “spool card”:
The card is the same size as a regular card at 4 1/4″ x 11″, scored and folded in half. I hand-drew the remainder of the card and then embossed the front panel with the Woodgrain Embossing Folder. I sponged around all the edges using a Sponge Dauber and Early Espresso Ink. I then added a piece of Designer Paper that was also sponged on the edges:
I stamped and embossed the swirls right on my DSP and then added the buttons, and sentiment layers. It’s a really simple card to make and a good way to use up some of your buttons!
Stampin’ Up! Supplies:
- Cardstock: Sahara Sand, Whisper White, Marina Mist
- DSP: Retired
- Tools: Big Shot Machine, Woodgrain Embossing Folder, Mini Glue Dots, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Early Espresso Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Sponge Dauber, Word Window Punch, Modern Label Punch
- Inks: VersaMark, Early Espresso, Cherry Cobbler
- Accessories: Designer Buttons, Baker’s Twine
- Stamps: Teeny Tiny Wishes, Retired (swirls)

Very cool shaped card! Love the woodgrain.
Thanks Janet! Trying to get caught up posting cards I made quite some time ago!
Awesome card, I thought that the spool shape was a die!! WOW!!! Love those buttons on top of the spool, really great card for the crafters you know who can sew.
I thought of my mom when I made this, she's big on sewing. Now that she's retired it's a great past-time for her. Thanks so much!
Great card for my quilting friends. May have to totally case it. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much Judi. It is quite easy to create, have fun!
