How to: stitch it!

Woo hoo! Winter break! Schooooooool's out! 2 weeks of absolutely no kids LOL
We have a brand new challenge today at

and our lovely Kim has chosen the theme
STITCHING (REAL OR FAUX)
Really easy and creative.
Our sponsor for this challenge is

So grab your needles or pens and make some stitches!

I've had this card in my mind for a few weeks. And it came out really interesting.

I am using the sponsor's digi 'Umbrella girl'. It's colored with Promarkes, paper pieced and stamped with THIS set of stamps. The whole stamp has been placed behind the digi.

All of these embellishments are from my stash. The only one thing new is a washi tape with the taylor tape.

The stitching is a stamp, too, from THIS set of stamps. There is no sentiment on the card, so it could be used for many occassions.

Thank you for visiting my blog!
