Itching to be stitching Mashup Challenge







So, here's the "Mashup!" challenge:
1. Create a project with "Stitching or Faux Stitching".
2. Or Create a project for "Back To School or a Teacher Gift".
3. Or "Mash it Up!" and create a "Back To School Project with Stitching"!


Well I guess you could say a part of this mashup is my passion, the stitching part. I love to do embroidered cards, so that's what I decided to do this week. I used silk threads and gold beads. Then punched and mounted the image and added the greeting.
Thanks for looking.

    Your card is beautiful. I have started one or two of these cards but yet to finish them. I like the extra effect of the added beads. Truly inspirational. I would like to thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and for leaving me positive feedback. It made my day

    Happy crafting and hugs
