This card combines the weekly
Sweet Stop sketch with the
Our Daily Bread challenge to use stitching on your card. We could either use faux or real stitching, and I decided to use a real needle and thread
. I started by stamping a flourish image (actually two different images) from Inkadinkado. I then poked holes with my paper piercer all along the lines. Then using DMC floss I back-stitched along the lines and and used french-knots for the dots. It took FOREVER, but since I turned it into a mother's day card for my grandmother, it was worth it. I don't know if I would do it again, but it was something fun to try.
