Today's card is a fun one for sure. I've been playing around with embroidery floss a lot lately, trying new stitches and incorporating it into cards in different ways. It's been fun! So on today's card I played around with my blossom nestabilities.
I stitched around the edges of the blossoms and tide french knots in the center. The leaves were cut by hand and stamped with Polka Dots (again with Polka Dot Basic II, I'm tellin' ya I just cant put it down...lol!). I love the way it turned out!!! 
So what do you think, have I enticed you to pick up a needle and thread? It's really much easier than it looks!Hope you guys have a great weekend and I'll try not to have too much fun painting our ceiling!!! lol! Thanks for stopping by today!
