Busting Tricks with Stitches at Digi Choosday

Good morning well it is a little warm today did you see any of the snow this weekend. Well it didnt stay around for long so didnt cause too much problems on the roads.

Well it is Tuesday and and what do we have for you to play with at Digi Choosday.

STITCHING

ok now this can be real of even faux as long as we can see some on your project.

 For my card I have used faux stitching and real stitching on the ribbon. 

My card feature The Skateboarder and paper from Work & Play 11 which is available HERE. I kept it very simple with just 1 one paper with stitching round the edge and the sentiment Busting Tricks I printed onto of the paper and then faux stitched the wording. I think this made it pop a little and also mirroed the ribbon. The ribbon is stitched. Fussy cut my image and placed on foam pads.
The image was coloured with a mix of promarkers and graphit pens.
Well a simple card which i think fits with most lads dont you.
Talking of lads well girls too have you see Nikkys new creation in the shops right now.
Stick & Bones of you just have to go and have a look. Dont forget we have a discount code for today which will help toward a purchase from the shop of maybe this download.
Ok now head on over and checkout the fabulous creations on the challenge blog.
Look forward to seeing what you make showing us some stitching.
Thanks for popping by.
