Hello everyone! Today's Free For All is a fun one! Wendy challenged us to a fun holiday challenge where she directed us to a great site that lists all sorts of bizarre and unique holidays, and we were to select one for July and create a card for it. It can't be July 4 or Independence day either. That is too easy!! If you'd like to see the list for July and join in the fun, check it out here
To go with the Thread the needle holiday, I stitched on my card. I used the brand new image just release at Our Daily Bread Designs: Hydrangeas!!
Card Recipe:
Stamps: ODBD Serve the Lord, Hydrangeas, Large Scrapbook Words
Paper: Kaiserkraft Lilac Avenue, SU Walk in the Park, pink cs, Old Olive CS, Neenah Solar White CS
Accessories: Crocheted Circle die (from ODBD), olive May Arts Silk ribbon, pink May Arts lace ribbon

This is just lovely. There is so much detail in this card from your die cuts to your trims and that perfectly tied bow! What a wonderful card for the challenge!

Chris, your work just touches me! This reminds me of something precious you would find on an antique dresser in a fine B&B. Gorgeous! Lymi
