My husband had a "Big" birthday last week, struggling with making just the right card, I remembered a card I had "Pinned" some time ago. As luck would have it, I had also received the most perfect die for my birthday a few weeks back, putting them both together and mixing them up a bit, here is what I came up with. A bit of paperpiercing, a bit of fake stitching some die cutting and glittered numbers.
My fave bit in real life is the tiny doodle stitched hearts that are only stuck in the middle so pop up slightly from the rest.
I tried taking a decent photo of them up close but it makes it look a bit dodgy :(
I'm using this card for the following challenges:-
TKJ146, Use any sketch,
CFAS65, Stitching,
Creative Moments 30, CAS,
FnF193, Anything goes,
CYP188, Doodling,
MIM166, Anything goes,
OLLCB, Stitching.
Thanks for stopping by,

I absolutely love the simple elegance of this card. Makes such a change to see a card for a man that doesn't have cars or sport featured. Love the stitched hearts. Thanks for joining in with our stitching challenge at Ooh La La creations.
