I have been wanting to try stitching on my cards for some time now...this inspiration photo along with the yummy colors helped me take the plunge:) Here's the card that I was inspired to make!
Love You Much
I stitched the Real Red cardstock onto the Kraft card base. Then I layered a piece of Bella Bleu DSP trimmed with a strip of Very Vanilla cardstock that was punched with the Pinking Hearts Border punch. The main image was stamped in Black Stazon and then colored in with Sahara Sand marker. The Real Red Corduroy button was threaded with Linen Thread and attached to the flower with a glue dot. Lastly, the Real Red Satin ribbon was tied around the DSP panel and all was centered and adhered to the layered card base....and there you have it...my very first sewn card!
Stamps: Love You Much
Paper: Kraft, Very Vanilla, Real Red CS, Bella Bleu DSP
Ink: Black Stazon, Sahara Sand Stampin' Write Marker
Other: Real Red Corduroy Buttons and Satin Ribbon, Linen Thread, Pinking Hearts Border & Corner Rounder punch, Stampin' Dimensionals, Pop Up Glue Dots
Beautiful take on your inspiration challenge! Perfect Valentine card!
