Basic Grey Stitching

Late for posting for Basic Grey challenges



Challenge 7 - Stitching

This week we would like you to show some stitching in your creations, it can be faux or real, its up to you, and of course to use at least one item of BasicGrey on your creation...



It's a man card, but I'm not keen on this I must have been rushing, I like all the individual elements just not at the same time on the same card!



I've added quite a bit of faux stitching on two edges! - yummy

Cup cake - yummy


Swirly stamping - yummy

Sentiment - This is the part of the card I like... doesn't it remind you of yummy chocolate? in fact very close to white chocolate dipped in dark chocolate! - yummy



But altogether - Not! (I'm still sending it, so lets hope he like's and is not reading this!)



Materials:
Paper: BG of course! - Archaic, DCWV - textured,

Die's: Sizzix - enjoy, cupcake,

Other: glossy accents, 3D foam, tracer for stitching!








Thank you for stopping by and thought I would leave you with another sneak peek! Also I would love to thank all of my Followers It's wonderful to know you, and it means so much, HuGs Kim x
