Dies R Us Anything Goes with Stitching On It



Hi everyone!

Today's card is for the challenge at Dies R Us...."use a die with stitching on it."

Grab our Badge!

I love dies with stitches on them, and one of my favorites is Tutti Designs Scalloped Stitched Nesting Rectangles.

I used it as a base for my card, and added the cute bee from Cheery Lynn. I stuck some honey comb in behind the bee...also from Cheery Lynn. The sentiment is from Taylored Expression.


I used my mat to make some eyes with some white Nuvo, and added just a touch of black Nuvo for the centers. I left them overnight to set, peeled them off and adhered them to the bee.


Here's a list of the supplies I used you can find at Dies R Us:
