Hello, friends! I am so happy you stopped by for this stitched card featuring Ink to Paper's new Just Sentiments: Get Well stamps. Stitched cards are my jam, and I'm thrilled to share the process with you today!
I started my card by cutting a circle out of white cardstock. I then traced a smaller circle in pencil inside the perimeter of the circle. I used this pencil circle to stamp florals and foliage from the Pleasing Envelopes: Special Delivery, Graceful Wings, and the new Deer to Me stamp sets in shades of dusty pink, cocoa and chartreuse green. Then the fun began: the stitching! I used coordinating shades of embroidery floss to stitch around the circle and to add details to the leaves and other foliage. To finish the embellishing, I added french knots and some floral sequins around the floral frame.
To finish my card, I stamped my sentiment from the Just Sentiments: Get Well stamp onto a circle of polka dot paper. I adhered this paper to a larger circle of vellum and added some stitched details around the edge. After adhering this to the center of my card, it was finished!
I had so much fun creating this project and I hope you enjoyed it, too. Links to the products I used are above. Thanks so much for stopping by and I'll see you again soon with another project featuring new products from Ink to Paper!
I just LOVE the stitching you add to your cards. It’s been ages since I’ve cross stitched but you have truly inspired me. (I still have ALL my supplies! ) And I wanted to add, I’m head over heels loving your gorgeous color palettes! Your work is absolutely beautiful! 😊💖
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Stephanie! You made my day! I've also had stitching materials in my craft supplies for years. It wasn't until I started stitching on cards that I found something that incorporates everything I love to do. I truly hope you try it - and please come back and show me! I'd love to see what you make! :)
