Hi everyone! Today's WT426 is a fun one! We are to discover something new, try a new technique, process, material, in honor of Self Discovery month!
Since we are playing or Discovering like Christopher Columbus, I thought a ship would be appropriate.
My discovery I sort of happened upon by accident when I wanted to sew on my card and my sewing machine was giving me fits. Instead of using my machine for sewing, I used it for piercing instead. (This is the first time I tried this but I think it turned out pretty nice and I will try it again.)
For my card I used: Fishing and The Waves on the Sea from Our Daily Bread Designs. The dp I used is some new My Mind's Eye paper.
Thanks for looking!!

Sorry your machine was giving you fits, but it's inspired to use it for piercing! Your scene is lovely and your colors fabulous.

Beautiful!! I love your sewing machine piercing. Much more even than using a piercer. They give me fits!!
