All stitched up! Theme

Challenge #80 from Hand Stamped Sentiments was a stitching theme. This is a card I created with my new stitching tool which spaces the holes so stitching onto card is super-easy.

Can't quite remember where the inspiration for this card came from but I love the layout. I think the stitching adds the final touch!!

The sentiment is from the set, Just Believe; the papers are Elegant Soiree - such a classy set of papers. The butterfly was cut from the same set of papers on my beloved Big Shot (oh how I missed you these last few weeks!)

Hope you are enjoying the cards from this challenge if you found me from the HSS page - maybe you'd like to follow my blog to see all my other creations?

As for being back in the UK. Well, it's nice not to be sticky with sweat, especially for Munchkin but it was rather nice to be living an alfresco life! Back to reality and tomorrow I'm babysitting a nearly two-year-old along with my own.... any ideas to entertain them both?!
