Super challenge! Love stitching on cards...faux and real. I started to get out my sewing machine, but shoot...the white gel pen was right there just calling me. So faux stitching it is! Just a bit on the bottom around the sentiment oval.
After stamping the snowman ranch scene, I colored it w/ markers and die cut w/ the label 21. With the die still in place, I sponged on the sky blue ink. Did the sentiment the same way.
For the bg, I embossed the choc c/s w/ the stripe folder and added the faux stitching. I added some brads in the corners and then flattened them to look like nails. The finished card is 5.50 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.

Love that big label and the hayseed snowman! Your faux stitching is a nice complement to the image.
