Hey there! I made this card a couple of weeks ago for Paper Crafts stitching challenge. I've had my floss for a while and rarely use it. Now, I feel really comfortable and love stitching! I may have gone overboard here with all those circles, but it's my first stitching focal point card. You can stitch any design and you really don't need a template. As long as you paper pierce the design, stitching can be done super fast! For instance, use a flourish stamp (in a light ink) and then paper pierce the design.
Yesterday, I recorded this week's video! I hope to edit it today and share with you tomorrow!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great Tuesday!
