Hi there! Time for FTTC #108. Cindy is our host this week Cindy's challenge is to add stitching to your project. Faux, machine or hand stitching. I tried sewing in the past with no luck so I went with faux stitches and not to many of those were used:)
Here's my card
I used Butterflies & Blossoms. I colored the butterfly using Copics. The dp is by DCWV.
Check out the wonderful stitched projects from the FOF.

I colored this with Copics. Lately I've been really loving the clean and simple look on cards with a lot of open white space. I adore my embossing folders so I used that too:)

The above picture is my Holly Tree in the front yard.
