Stitched Trio

Hello my friends! I hope you all had a great weekend!

My cards for today were inspired by the Loonie Stampers Challenge #59. This week Dee chose the challenge, to create a single layer card...This sure was a fun challenge, I couldn't stop at just one card. Playing again with embroidery floss, I stitched French Knots onto images from Beyond Basic Borders. Here is a shot of each card...
Well, that's all from me today. I hope you all have a great start to your week! Thanks for stopping by today.

Maile


Supplies for all three cards: (All PTI unless noted)
  • Stamps: Beyond Basic Borders
  • Ink: Ripe Avocado & Dark Chocolate
  • Cardstock: Kraft
  • Accessories: DMC Embroidery Floss & Corner Rounder

These cards measure 4 1/4" X 2 3/4".

    Hey you! These are so cute! You know, they would make for a super cute gift! Making a bunch up and putting them in a homemade box or even tie a ribbon around them and give them to someone that loves getting homemade cards and maybe someone that doesn't have the time to make their own or anyone that would appreciate them!! They're so simple and sweet, they would just work great for that. Just an idea that popped in my mind when I first looked at these! Hehe! I'm thinking of maybe doing something like that for Christmas gifts. I miss you! Hope you're doing good!
