Another sewing themed card

Having still got the digi files open on the computer and seeing that there was a sewing machine on the Jolee's stickers, I decided to make another sewing themed card, this time following Hazel's sketch 51 on Moving along with the times:

This time I used one of my HOTP faux stitching stamps. Details of other supplies are in my previous post.

I don't like the green cotton on the sewing machine - looks odd with other things being blue - think I might try to change it

I'm linking for these challenges:

Wee memories 10: 'in stitches' - I stamped with HOTP faux stitching
Crafty creations 72: 'it's a stitch up'
Anything goes (Craft Den) 3: 'buttons and bows in monochrome - hope I'm forgiven for the little bits of blue
The crafty pad 75: 'paper piecing' - on the dress form
Craft your passion 10: 'technique: paper piecing'
Aly's Sunday 19: 'sewing'
The play date cafe 34: 'black and white with a bit of colour - blue'
Sweet stampin' 31: 'clean and simple' - I used digi
Divine Diva 30: 'retro photo inspiration' - I chose to depict retro sewing - this was the inspiration picture:
