Blogger's Challenge - A Stitch in Time

For today's Blogger's Challenge we had to create a card with some sort of stitching on it.

And because I am not the perfect little seamstress, and I didn't want to pull out my machine, I've opted for "Faux Stitching"!

I've had the image already done from when I was playing around (ahem prepared) for my upcoming Brayer Class.(This is one that I've decided against... the other ones will be posted after the class)

So all I really had to do today, was mat the image and then do the stitching.

Here is the card:

I've used my new stamp set called "Autum Days". I think you will see use it quiet frequently in the future. I love those images! They are very calming!

Speaking of calm... I hope you all will have relaxing weekend!

    Your brayering is gorgeous and the reeds looks so pretty in front of it. Nice job on the faux stitching. It fits well on the card...
