Sew and sew....

with a couple of beads threaded onto the multi shaded silk embroidery thread and hand stitched through the card ..very quick and simple to make.  I highlighted the card with a backing of deep blue card in keeping with the blue /turquoise/ purple tones and added a simple multicoloured sentiment to finish.  Challenge at LIM this week is sewing............ and I will also use it for the MMM challenge this week where there are some beautiful cards on display on both sites..... Busy busy time in ouor house these past few weeks and more to come and loving every minute spent with my six gorgeous grandchildren off to play...........x

  1. It's a gorgeous design! Great work on the stitching - I think they look like icicles - and love the addition of the pearls.
