Kaboodle Doodles Challenge # 77 - Stitching Faux or Real

Hi all

Hope you all had a great weekend - we did we had friends over on Friday night through to yesterday evening and more friends came around yesterday for a BBQ and thankfully the weather was gorgeous so we could all sit outside (mind you the wasps flying around had other ideas about our day and tried to get us stressed out by keep flying around gggrrrrrrr).  The food all turned out great and a couple of my friends had made desserts which were yummy and we all had a great time sitting in the sunshine (has Summer finally arrived then......)

So today I'm quite tired from the entertaining but its always worth it in my book!!!  So my blogging "work" (ha ha) must continue and as its Monday you know what that means...... yep its Kaboodle Doodles challenge time again. This week the challenge is to use stitching on your card be it faux or real.  We have been sponsored this week by The Crafty Pad

I decided I was going to do faux stitching on mine (I know I've got that lovely new, bright and shiney sewing machine sitting on my craft desk) but the thought of trying to stitch the heart shape...... well lets just say the pen option was more appealing! So Here is my card:-


Recipe
Card blank: Craftwork Cards
Stamps: Inkadinkado
Congrats ticket: The Crafty Pad

So grab your sewing machine (or pen) and get stitching and show us what you make!!

Take care and .....

Happy Crafting

    elegant card, Tina! I also have a sewing machine but hadn't gotten to make use of it yet. . . afraid that i might not get it to stich well on paper. {sigh}

    Happy you had a wonderful time with your loved ones/friends!
