Our new challenge this week at Crafty Cardmakers is to use stitching on your card - either real or faux stitching is acceptable. I have gone for faux stitching on my card - getting the sewing machine out requires major disruption and unfortunately I didn't have time for that! I drew a line of zigzag stitch down the left hand side of my card with a fineliner, then on my next layer of Kars patterned paper I used a paper piercing tool to make holes all around the edge then added 'stitching' with a white sakura pen. I repeated the process down both sides of my mounted image and this time used the fineliner again to create the impression of stitches. My image is from Pollycraft and has been coloured with Promarkers and the sentiment is from Stampin Up.
I am entering this card for the following:

I would never have known that was faux stitching if you hadn't said - beautifully neat. (I'm always in awe of people who can do things that neatly.)
Gorgeous card. I love the blues - very cool and wintery!
