The sentiment was stitched using Colaris DMC thread on black 16ct aida. The edges were frayed before adding to the pale blue glitter card on the white card base. I then layered together some paper flowers, papermania bloomers and papermania blitters on top of some skeleton leaves, to create a floral focal point.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
notjustcards - Anything Goes
AYLI - favourite none card project - for those of ou who regularly visit my blog you will know that Cross Stitching is a regular craft for me as regularly post updates from my WIP as well as posting smaller finishes throughout the month - so I made a cross-stitch greeting for this card
Fussy and Fancy #219 Anything Goes
CASology #311 Flip (the background is stitched rather than the design itself)
I have some new garden pictures for you today:
My sunflowers to replace the dead Rosemary.
The Rose is growing back after being eaten by a tiny green caterpillar.
It has its own sentries this time.
The Poinsettia doesn't look great at the moment - think I might need to move it into the shed?
This Nasturtium just keeps growing, even with its caterpillar friends:
And finally I have a WIP update for you all (it has been a while I know):
This dino is now at over 73 hours (over 163hrs for the whole sampler) and there are still 2 dinos to go yet!.
Thanks for looking and I cannot wait to see what you create,
Hugz Tinz
