Hand Stitched Card

I think I am beginning to love hand stitching on my card ever since I moved to Vegas, where I have my own craft room and the sewing box full of embroidery threads is easy to reach (or to find? LOL!)

This is another card with hand stitching, it is for the challenge over at Embellish Magazine.


Here's my take


I also enter the challenge over at Wee Memories Challenge # 10 - In Stitches with the same card
The hand stitches are a little uneven, but that's the way I like it comparing to machine stitches

Cute as a button! How funny, I have just moved away from hand stitching to sewing with my new sewing machine and I have only just realised how cute a hand sawn things can really be! ;))) x
