I was so happy when I found this stamp. It was a keeper. I love going to the Pike Place Market in Seattle. Good memories growing up. I remember the Texas donuts that were HUGE. We went together as family, for field trips, by myself, with my Mom etc. Good memories. I LOVE this place.
This card is for DARE TO GET DIRTY. Its for Julie's and Ryann's challenges.
I stamped the raindrops (can you see them) in VersaMark and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.
Then I FAUX stitched my border to look like it was done with a sewing machine that is why its a little crooked, at least this is what it looks like when I use a sewing machine. LOL
I stamped my main image twice, once on the main panel and again on separate cs and colored and cut out the portion under the name and sponged and popped it up.
I made my own faux brad using a 1/4" hole punch, scrap red paper and dimensional glaze.

This is such a unique card - I really like the embossed raindrops and the black stitching, it frames the image perfectly - visited there several years ago, and loved the atmosphere, color, and the food especially!
