I'm hoping my mojo has come back, I've been productive in creating this week and can't wait to share all that I've done. Keep your eye out on Monday for a mega post filled with LOTS of cards.
Today over at Blogger's Challenge our theme is "All Stitched Up". This gave me a great opportunity to dust off my little Janome and do some sewing. At first my stitching was not straight but I decided to improvise and love how it turned out on my card.
I don't think I had ever inked up my Botanical Blooms set from Stampin' Up! and thought that this set would be great for what I had in mind. At first I was thinking a Valentine's card, but went in the direction of love/anniversary instead.
I stamped my flower image twice and popped it up with dimensionals. I added some pearls for the flower center to give it some elegance.
This is for a few challenges this week:
Hope you will join us for Blogger's Challenge this week, can't wait to see what you stitch up.
