I just had to do one more case from Stamp Muse's gallery, the FS this week. It's actually a case she did from Dawn's card when she was the FS and I never got to do a case on Dawn's card, so this is for both of them:
They both had more of a toile look than mine, but this is what I came up with. I used a retired SU B/G stamp which I can't even find on the list of stamps called Hand Stitched, hence the name of my card - No, I didn't hand stitch anything!!! LOL!!
This card truly did not come out like I wanted and I had to keep adding because it just didn't look balanced. I may have overdone it, but it needed help. I don't think the b/g stamp was pronounced enough to really carry the card without the extra details. I scored the b/g image with my ScorePal for a little more texture too.
Anyway, M and Dawn, this is dedicated to both of you.
Thanks for taking the time to look and if you have a chance, let me know what you think!!

Love the boquet of flowers at the bottom, Pam! Love the MS border punch - it's on my hit list LOL - and the BG stamp is perfect for this CASE. Great job honoring both ladies

Oh, Pam, this is really beautiful! I love the colors (I am a blue lover!), but I also love the flowers and the die cuts and border punch. I was thinking of selling my handstitched and was on the edge...not any more. This goes into my faves...love it!
