Heart 2 Heart stitching challenge

This week's challenge will be sew easy and fun! Get it?? We are doing a stitching challenge! Now don't be afraid of this one. If you can sew, that's great but it isn't necessary to participate in this challenge. You can add stitching by machine, hand, or even faux stitching to your cards.


I added faux stitching around my doily, which I cut with my cricut. The rest of the layout is all stamped!! No patterned paper was used at all!!!!!
Hope you play along with us at Heart 2 Heart!!!

Heart to Heart Embossing challenge

This week we have an Embossing challenge over at Heart to Heart!
You can heat emboss or dry emboss. Remember to use CTMH products!
I embossed my background using the butterfly stamp and white embossing powder. I then sponged over with 3 different blue inks to create a resist.
I used pp from the Pemberly paper pack.
I also embossed my main buttlerfly image with clear embossing powder to make it pop a bit.

Like the shape of my card? CTMH makes them so easy to create with their pre made colonial white cards with envelopes!!!

Pemberly layout

This layout is made with the Pemberly workshop to go.
I used the NEW felt alphabet for my title! I wish CTMH made it in every color!!!!
I the banner is stamped with the flower from the WTG stamp set, I like the texture it created.
