Everything But the Kitchen Sink Challenge 12: String

This Cosmo Cricket Jitterbug paper is great! I saw this sketch in Papercraft's Go to Sketches magazine and knew I wanted to try it when I saw Everything But the Kitchen Sink Challenge 12: String. So I pulled out my Janome Sew Mini and got to work, and tried handstitching again using my Bazzill Paper Basics flower stencil. I used my SU! mat pack, pierced the rose colored paper, then went back and handstitched the flower. I put SU! Crystal Effects on the center of the flower, and since I wanted buttons, I used a whole row of them. I'm sending this card as a RAK as part of the Splitcoaststampers forum. Thanks for stopping by! Supplies: Paper: Cosmo Cricket's Jitterbug - Miss Molly, Georgia Girl, Peggy Sue, and Lil Suzie Cardstock: Speckletone Kraft Embellishments: buttons, DMC floss no. 437, twill tape Tools: SU! Crystal Effects, Bazzill Basics Paper Flower Stencil, SU! mat pack
