Repeat Impressions What if Wednesday (WIW) DCC by Michele

This is my second post for today. For Flutter By Wednesday please scroll down or click here.


Today's Repeat Impressions What if Wednesday is another Designer's Choice Challenge (DCC).  Rock Star Michele has challenged us to include stitching on our card - either real or faux.  I chose to hand embroider the border using the cross stitch between the patterned paper and the white cardstock with brown embroidery thread.  I paper pieced the Comfy Chair (2628-H) with Basic Grey's Sugared patterned paper and popped it up with foam squares.  The sentiment is also from Repeat Impressions.
Now it is your turn to play - just create a new card or project including some stitching (real or faux) and link it directly to InLinkz on the RI blog, The House That Stamps Built for a chance to win an entire sheet of rubber!  You will be entered twice if you use RI stamps on your creation.
Thanks for coming by!
Supplies: Stamps - Repeat Impressions; Paper - PaperTrey, Basic Grey; Ink - Chocolate Chip, Versafine Onyz Black; Misc - SU! Mat Pack, Paper Piercer, Embroidery Thread, Foam Squares

  7. The cross stitched pattern is such a fun way to blend the patterned paper to the white. And that chair just looks SO comfortable! Great card......as usual!
