I made this card for Sabrina's HYCCT challenge to create a card and "hold it together without you usual resources". To hold my pieces together, I stitched with scrapbooking floss.
Per Sabrina's instructions, I attached my full card front to the card base with Scor-Tape. Love that stuff!
I combined this challenge with a Power Poppy World Card Making Day challenge, as they are a Pink Ribbon sponsor for HYCCT. The specific challenge was to "think pink" on a HYCCT challenge. No problem using pink here!
Thanks for looking!

Ooh, a great card on both counts, Toni! Those pink flowers are gorgeous, your stitching is great and I love that you tied off the cross-stitching on the sentiment with that sweet little bow. Thank you for playing along and Holding It Together.

This is just gorgeous, Toni! I love how you used floss to attach your sentiment and image! I am so glad you could play along with us at Power Poppy while supporting SCS's HYCCT challenge!
Oh wow, I am really impressed with the way you have held your card together. Great handstitching and a really exquisite card.
