WT383 In Stitches_lb

Photo Details

Poster: Clownmom

Because today's Ways to Use It challenge is called In Stitches, I thought the perfect stamp set to use for it was I'm in Stitches from Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Company. The "stitches" DP is from Cosmo Cricket's Material Girl. After putting my card together, I decided to add that thread spool charm -- which I colored with a Copic marker to match the stitches around the central panel. Oh, you can probably tell that my stitches are "faux."

Good challenge!!!

Love the faux stitched framing around your awesome image and the charm just sends it over the top. My mom is still sewing on her old singer that looks like this, but has had to have it fixed a few times in the last year and she is about to FINALLY retire it.
