Spiin embroidery floss from DRK crafts. I got the pack of 144 so there are so many options and I also got the needles and the needle threader with the threads that I didn't even realise came in the pack.
This little guy is from the brand new clear stamp release by Sweet November Stamps and this set is called Kitty Cuddles : Sully. You can grab it from my Crafty Purple Frog store HERE for you UK people or direct from Sweet November Stamps HERE and they are based in the US.
Here is a YouTube video showing my colouring and how I added the stitching to this little guy
I used the following copic colours to colour in this little boy and his cat:
Skin: E33, E11, E00
Top:YR07, YR04, Y08
Jeans: B99, B97, B95
Shoes: E25, E23, E21
Cat: W8,W6,W4, E04
When I do this again I will use a thicker card stock or add more tape to the area I am putting the thread in just to strengthen the card a bit more. I would also probably give the area I am adding the thread to a base coat of a colour just to hide some of the gaps and add a bit more depth but I am still so happy with how this turned out :D
I am entering this card for the following challenges:

ReplyDeleteYour paper is lovely but that little image really steals the show. I love how you added the stitching. Not something I would ever do, but I admire others who are creative this way. Thanks for joining us at MMM, Johanna DT
