Hi ya!
Today's card is all about faux stitching. I'm so not the kind of gal who'll pull out the sewing machine, for a card, but I envy those talented ladies that do. I can't sew straight (much to my grandmother's dismay) but boy my faux stitching is pretty awesome! It's also much straighter than my regular sewing and it's so much faster! (hahaha) I'm glad I finally finished this card. It was just waiting for the right layout and it came in the form of the current Deconstructed Sketch. It made me smile when I was done.
Today's card features Winter Yumi. I've been on this blue and green kick for some time now. (They are two of my favorite colors) and once I figure out what to do with the other colored images I'll share. As you can see I've done faux stitching on almost every part of the card as well as Yumi's hat. The patterned papers are scraps from K&Company (Jubilee) & Confetti by Colorbok and I like how the colors seems to pull together even with the hot pinks. The sentiment stamped on to the white banner is from Make It Crafty and yes I faux stitched it with blue ink. hehehe...
Anyone playing in any of the March Madness pools? I stopped doing that several years ago since I don't watch college basketball like I used to. I have no clue who's good or bad nowadays and you can't always rely on the #1 team making it to the finals as they always seem to get knocked out early. (Knock on wood) Well good luck to you if you are. Hopefully I'll get to watch a few minutes of some of the games in between enjoying the weekend, but for now, I'll settle for getting this post up. :) Okie dokes, thanks for stopping by today, have a terrific day!
