I hope that you are having a fabulous week. I have had a lot going on with my family and personal issues, so I haven't had as much time to craft as I would like to. I have had the idea for this card in my head for a couple of days and it felt wonderful to finally get it created. It is based on
Sketch 46 by Laura this week at
2 Sketches 4 You. I also used the
Fun With Floss challenge at
Moxie Fab World. I love using floss on my cards and this time, I combined my love of crocheting with my love of card making. My grandmother taught me how to crochet when I was very young. I often crochet gifts for others such as hats, scarves, and afghans. I recently started to make a whole bunch of crochet flowers (that I plan to put on
my etsy site soon) and when I saw the challenge at Moxie Fab, I decided to try to crochet these cute little flowers with the embroidery floss.
Here is a close-up of the flowers and leaves that I crocheted. I also stitched with the embroidery floss to create stems and grass.
Cardstock, stamp, ink, border punch, ribbon: Stampin' Up!
Other: embroidery floss, buttons
I hope that your day is going wonderfully. Thanks for stopping by!!
