Welcome to your next Embellish challenge! You're going to love it and everyone can participate~~~let's hear it for ~~~STITCHING! There are so many options out there....machine stitch, faux stitch, embroidery stitches and even stamps that look like stitching. Whatever moves ya....go with it.
Let me introduce you to the sponsor for this weeks prize ~~~ Your Next Stamp company. They design and create fun and whimsical stamps for everyone. Be sure to head on over to Embellish Magazine for information regarding Your Next Stamp, the stitching challenge and of course the PRIZE!
My card uses You're Fabulous stamp set. This cutie flower is from the stamp that is actually a "ring" but I stamped it and cut it several times, removing the ring part. Don'tcha love it when you can use a stamp in more than one way?
I so love that the element used in this challenge is STITCHING! My flower stem is created using a stitch option that I have on my Brother sewing machine. Love it! I also stitched a border around the card and ran a pink stitch over the side of the sentiment a few times.
Here's a close up of my stamped flower. I scrunched up and "tried" to distress the top flower as that seems to be the thing these days....but is it for me?....um, not so much. I think I prefer clean and fresh.
Have a wonderful day everyone! Hope to see you over on Embellish Magazines Stitching challenge. Thanks for visiting!
P.S. the photos in the challenge image are all taken by Ashley. I am still scared to death of my Nikon D90 so seeing photos like that really inspire me to try to make time to practice!
