SEIZE THE BIRTHDAY ~ FAUX STITCHING

Welcome to another SEIZE THE BIRTHDAY CHALLENGE where we are looking for real or faux stitching on your BIRTHDAY card!

Barbara is our hostess this time around and she has an amazing stitched card to share, so be sure to visit the blog and check out her card, you will be blown away by hers and so many of the other ladies that really took this challenge to heart. And once again we have Jenny from My Paper Epiphany joining us as our Special Party Guest.

Me, I used a Penny Black die called Stitched Nested Frame!  I obviously went with the "faux" stitching!


The other products used are:

The Greetery: Robin & Wren, Bottled Up, Budding Beauties: Summer

I hope you will join us and have fun with this challenge!

I will see you in the gallery!

Heart Hugs, friends!
