Papertake Weekly Challenge

This week's theme for the Papertake Weekly Challenge is

A Stitch In Time


A stitch in time is simply to use stitching on your project! It can be real or
faux!
















A different shaped card for me today. I saw one this shape on a German lady's blog, but can't find the blog now!! Anyway I cut the scalloped square using my Cricut. The frame I measured out myself and stitched around the outer and inner edges. The big flowers are also cut with the Cricut but the smaller ones I've used a punch. All the papers are from a Stamping Up designer paper set. And of course the main image is an Alota stamp from the Country Girls range. She has been coloured with Promarkers.

Stamp:- Alota stamps

Papers:- SU designer papers: petals and paisleys

Cricut cartridges:- Accent Essentials & Mini Monogram
