Random Amusing Challenge 85

Happy Monday! Hope you had a great weekend and a great World Card Making Day. My apologies for the late post... I have been busy prepping for my class at Scrapbook Parade tonight.

The challenge for this week is to do some stitching/sewing on your card or project. It can be real or faux, whatever strikes your fancy. I actually managed to clear off a large enough corner on my craft table to leave my sewing machine set up so I have real stitching on my card. If you upload to an online gallery, please use the keyword GRAC85. If you play along, please leave a comment here and link back to this post from your post. Thanks to Martha, Dori, Katie and one of my crafty girls Jo for playing along last week!

  8. FINALLY! i actually completed a card (or four!) this weekend. it also meets the a*muse monthly challenge!

    i faux stitched - and to add to the deception, i only anchored my layer on the "sewn" edge!
