Stretch your stash by add stitching to your hand made cards


It's Amy here from Crafty Purple Frog I am so excited to be back as Guest Designer with my second post. Today I have another YouTube video for you. This time stretching your stash and adding stitching in your card making.


Adding some stitching really gives your cards more texture and dimension. And as for the papers the Heffy Doodle summer holiday 6" x 6" paper pad has such fun bright colours in it that it never fails makes me smile. You can see my video for all the details on how I added the stitching to this cute little cow HERE.

For the stitching I again used the Spiin embroidery floss pack from DRK crafts.

My images are coloured in Copic Markers on alcohol marker friendly cardstock using Tuxedo Black Memento ink using the following colours:

Cow body = T8, T6, T3, T1

Udders and nose = E33,E11,E00

Flower = R85, R81, Y13


All the Heffy Doodle goodies that I used were:



The Tutti frutti sparkle mix really brings a touch of shine to the creation as a finishing touch.

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog today. I hope you enjoy the video let me know in the comments what Heffy Doodle stamps you would like to add some stitching to. I am going to have a play making a lions mane next using the Mane squeeze stamp set.

I am entering this card for the following challenges:
