I've discovered that if I want to have fun making cards, I need to have the sewing machine out. Without a quick line of stitching
here or there, or a swirl of thread or even a freehand twirl
I don't know where to start and I definitely don't know where to finish. For some reason, starting with the stitching makes it a whole lot easier. I like it to look casual and relaxed and I'll use one colour until I run out of bobbin.
Anyone else have a "hook"? A special sentiment stamp you use every time? or a shape of card you find works best for your ideas?

ReplyDeleteFun card set & what a great way to use up bits & bobs.
ReplyDeleteI love your stitching! I used some on a card last week for the first time in a LONG time. I just don't think of it. Yours are an inspiration, and I love how you use the pieces from the Gossamer Blue kits.
ReplyDeleteThese all look wonderful - the stitching adds such a finished look even if for you it's the first thing!
ReplyDeleteYour cards turned out so cute. I love all your bits and bobs!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards + I love your free stitching
ReplyDeleteLove the Easy Breasy look of your cards..... & the stitching works sew/so well! I have no 'hook'. I actually REALLY like just starting a card, with no idea & seeing what happens. That creative process on a 'mini' canvas is FUN!!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, simple clean design and so you!
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous!! Ive not stitched on a card but might try it I love the effect x
ReplyDeleteThey really do look finished with a little bit of stitching on them.
