For the Queen for the day challenge I chose Phyllis (Sparkle Plenty) and her beautiful creation Embrace Life in Pink by SparklePlenty1000 by SparklePlenty1000 at Splitcoaststampers . What a hard time I had trying to decide because Phyllis's gallery is full of splendid cards but when I saw that little gem it reminded me of an unfinished stitching project that has been on my desk for at least a week so with needle in hand it got finished. The pre-pricked pattern is from Doodey. Luckily the pink and green theme was already started with Gutermann metallic threads with a little dash of silver just for fun. The greeting die is from Cheery Lynn and the ribbon from Joy Craft.

I love the line design on your card. I used to have my students do this with pencil and they were bigger in size. They had a hard time keeping the lines going to the right dots. I can't imagine doing this with thread and so small. TFS
