Stitching

By
Hello - it's Saturday and that means another Christmas challenge over on the 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown and this week Patricia would like to see some stitching on our cards - real or faux


Here is my card


Needles and thread are hard to find in my house so I went with the faux stitching! I drew the stitches on with a fine end of a marker pen.

Stamps: Delightful Dozen, Pines and Poinsettias (retired)
Ink: Early Espresso, Chery Cobbler, Always Artichoke
Card Stock:Whisper White, Crumb Cake, Always Artichoke, Naturals Ivory
Accessories: Big Shot, Window Framelits

    What a beautiful card! I love the pine cones in the corners. The center text is beautifully framed by the die cuts and the faux stitching.
    Thanks for your nice comment.

So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr...
