I hope you've had a good week and have a lovely weekend. Don't they come around quickly?
I decided to enter a second card in the current CD Sunday challenge, this time with a embroidered design. I've had this pattern for a while and this is the first time I've used it.
It took a long time to stitch the design but I'm very pleased with the result. I didn't want to detract from the image so kept the card fairly simple. The pattern for this design is available from stitching cards and I stitched it using metallic threads. The design is matted onto green mirror card, I used a corner stamp from Dimension which I heat embossed with crystal embossing powder and then just added some midget gems to finish.
I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:
CD Sunday Challenge - Fine Plumage
Card Crafters Circle - In Stitches
Pin and Tack Spark Your Creativity Now! - Anything Goes
