    Embroidered Papercrafts Inspiration

    Wednesday, June 25, 2008, 10:14 AM EST [General]

    If you haven’t checked out the design*sponge blog, I recommend you pop on over. Whether discussing home décor, stationery, DIY projects or amazing makeovers, the photos are always inspiring.



    This post about esty artist nestingrange prompted some inspiration of my own.  Nestingrange's embroidered paper tags would not only make great additions to gift bags, but also make perfect simple, delicate embellishments for cards and layouts. While you’re in the shop, be sure to check out the embroidered wallpaper—amazing! 

    (And speaking of sewing and papercrafting, you can get some more inspiration from Sew Easy Papercrafting which is now 50% off in the mycraftivity.com clearance shop.)

    What kind of art inspires your own papercrafting?

    Recently I was introduced to embroidering on paper and made a lovely bookmark as a thank you gift for someone. It turned out so nice that I then stitched a set of notecards to donate to a local charity auction. I will be posting them on my website www.HookedOnNeedles.com soon if you want to see what they look like.

    I really enjoyed making them and loved the way they turned out.

    I also just posted some pictures of an embroidered journal cover which will be the project my summer embroidery class will be doing at the local children's library this summer. While it is not embroidery on paper, it is embroidery to cover a book, so I thought it kind of fit in here!

    Another great embroidery website is www.needlenthread.com. Mary Corbet does some really beautiful stuff there!
