Don't Forget Me....

The fabulous Helen Chilton is visiting over at PaperArtsy Towers (she's the lady who through the powers of telekinesis managed to get a packet of Portfolio pastels to fall into my online shopping basket) I did pay for them so we're not into organised crime lol.
She's made another colourful pastel piece, and here's mine.

 I loved getting the portfolio's out again but I don't know if my sewing machine was as happy, I had to clean his needle afterwards :-)
I've used various text stamps, and the main image is from HP1207.
Hope you like it, and thanks very much for looking x

    Great use of Portfolios - so effective. I love the machined hem, even if your sewing machine did groan a bit: hope it got over the trauma! Julie Ann xx

    Gorgeous card, fab colours, very cool sewing gives a great effect:-)

    Did u heat set the Portfolio Pastels before sewing? Wondering why your needle had to be cleaned, hope you don't mind me asking!
