I wanted to do some paper embroidery, so I pulled out this piece of c/s that I had made playing with alcohol inks. Cut it with the Cheery Lynn die with the scallops to use for my piercing without a pattern, you just pierce where there in the center of each scallop. The thread is variegated, from red to pink to orange.Once the sewing was done I stamped the image and embossed with clear ep. I used the size larger for the black bg, then made an easel base.
As there was some leftover stone c/s, I punched the flowers and die cut the butterfly. The flowers were shaped, glued together and liquid pearl added for the centers. Pretty darn easy once I knew what I wanted to do.
