This week Fun High Hopes Challenge #3 is to Stitch on your card.....this can be done with a sewing machine, by hand or faux stitching.
This card is also for the Cute Card Thursday Challenge #31 which is to have buttons and bows on your card!
On to the card....
For this card I used High Hopes, "Munchin' Melvin Elf" and "cinnamon stick". The sentiment is from a HOTP clear stamp set.
Paper - GP white, imaginisce, basic gray, SU kraft, provo craft
Ink - versafine black, creamy caramel
Accessories - stickles, scribbles, diamond glaze, ribbon, stitching, scallop punch, buttons
