Hi everyone, it's time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Shirley wants to see some stitching on our cards. Faux or real, it's up to you
Of course, anything goes with a birthday sentiment is always fine too.
Our guest this time around is Lorraine and she and my team mates have some wonderful cards to inspire you, so I hope you can play along.
I've gone with stitching from diecuts.
I used a stitched rectangle die and then taped the blossom border metal die in place to cut the floral strip from the rectangle. Lots of stitching on that too.
The background is one of my last scraps from some inka gold smooshed on paper. Need to make some more!
Here's a closer look at the shimmer.

Such a pretty strip die with the flowers in white which goes beautifully over that bright and pretty gold/jade inka gold background Cathy and love the stitched edge to add to the stitching on the rectangle die itself which looks great. x
ReplyDeleteI love the fresh background on your die-cut stitching images. The white flowers are a creative way to make a stunning card.
ReplyDeleteThe inka gold smooshing looks so pretty and what a delicate and pretty die cut. A beauty of a card Cathy x.
ReplyDeleteFabulous stitched strips with that lovely delicate die.
ReplyDeleteAnother pretty card, Cathy! I love that most of your cards have a bit of shimmer or shine to them! It is always fun to see what you come up with!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Cathy! The soft Inka gold paper is the perfect background for your die cut flower panel. Must get my Inka pots out!

Way to step up a die cut! Of course, the flowers look delicate and beautiful, but I love how the faux stitching adds additional texture and I love the look of the shiny green tones. Great card, Cathy!
ReplyDeleteYour green panel is gorgeous! Also - what what what ??!? - with taping the dies together. Amazing - I can't even imagine. This card is gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLovely background and complimented by your flower panel. Beautiful card. Thank you for joining us at Bizzy Becs for our Anything Goes Challenge.
