I know, me again! I just shared this card with the Altenew Fan Group on Facebook and part of me just knew that you might enjoy it, too!
It all started because Bobby shared THIS card and I fell hard for
that Cozy Sweater embossing folder!!
After creating my panel, I knew that my old faithful mittens from EBE
would NOT work because the size was too small - but never fear!
My Altenew Nesting Arches were just right for 'knitting' one of my own and the
sizing wasn't a problem at all - so many to choose from!
A cuff was hand cut and given a bit of texture then mounted onto
the knitted panel - a bit of pine from HoneyBee and a gold star seemed
like the best final touch! This is another time when I wish my mom were
still here on earth - she would have knitted me a sweater like this one, for sure!
The paper one will do!

How clever to use the arched dies for your mitten(s) Michele! I'm loving all the texture on this card and also all the white on white! The POP of color from your pine sprig, berries and gold star are the perfect addition to this lovely, lovely card! Hugs. :0)
Talk about using your items and extending them! That mitten is, fabulous using those arches ! That is an amazing embossing folder also. Well done!
Very clever creation of the mitten with the arch dies! Love all the texture on your card.... that is a great embossing folder!
Clever girl!! This is awesome!!
There are no words.....just lovely. I am continually amazed at how you get so much depth from your embossing folders! The sprig is the perfect touch!
Oh my, this is cozy! I would like a sweater and mittens just like that. Beautiful, Michele.
Glorious card, Michele. Wow! Would you believe my mom knit my Ken doll a sweater like this?
You've literally blown my mind again! The sweater embossing is pretty amazing, and then you come up with making your own mitten -- stunned and amazed again at your beautiful card and skills!
Looks hand knit———wow and not one dropped stitch!
I have a sweater very similar to this. I've had it for 40 years, still love it and have no intention of giving it up. I absolutely adore how it looks on your card, improvised mitten included! The evergreen sprig is just the extra touch it needed. Fabulous!
Now that's a cool card. It looks just like a real sweater.
I still can't get over using the arch dies to build a MITTEN! Your creative mind works differently from anyone else. As I said on FB, it's genius! Pure genius!!
Not only a beautiful card but really very cleverly designed! Love it!
WOW! I love how you "knitted" up this sweater and mitten, Michele! What a wonderful embossing folder! It's a beautiful backdrop for this pretty sprig of pine!
