Even though the Christmas Quilt bundle is part of the Holidays catalogue, I like that it can be used for way more than Christmas projects and adapted to any season. Depending on the colors you use and sentiment you pair with it, it can be appropriate for just about any occasion.
Here, inspired by the Create with Connie and Mary challenge #471 (and past Mojo Monday sketch #358), I decided to make a birthday card. One of the French sentiment has a reference to stitching (does not translate really well) and mentions Christmas on the last line, but since the lines were spaced wide apart, I was able to ink only the two top lines on the edge of my ink pad, stamp this part in Bermuda Bay ink and then add a birthday ending using the Happy Birthday Gorgeous stamp set, in Lemon Lime Twist ink.
The spool and needle are dies from the Quilt Builder Framelits Dies and I used Baker's twine to cover the spool and link it to the needle, which I glued over my stamped quilt pattern. The triangle pattern is also a stamp from the same set, which I've stamped repeatedly over my Bermuda Bay cardstock for added interest.
