Hello everyone! It's time for the monthly Blog Hop over at Capture the Moment.
"For the March Blog Hop we are challenging you to use embroidery floss in a fun and inventive way on your project. We look forward to seeing your creations!"
Here is my creation.
I used black DMC thread to stitch around the die cut and for the center of the flower. Yellow thread was used to produce the little flower stitches in the corners.
The flower background is stamped in yellow chalk ink from Studio G. Ribbon dots are colored in using a Copic Marker. The yellow cardstock is from American Crafts, and I did distress the edges of the flower a bit using Ranger Distress ink in scattered straw.
All dies used are from PTI. Stamps are from the sets: Green Thumb and Faux Ribbon.
So, what do you think? Did I use embroidery floss in a fun and inventive way? Thanks for stopping by!
