Good morning and HAPPY FRIDAY!! I'm very excited to share a card with you today for the Papertrey March Blog Hop! What can I say--I AM OFFICIALLY HOOKED! I recently ordered a bunch of stamp sets from PTI, and I'm loving everything I've played with so far!
This could get REALLY dangerous for me, LOL! Such fun stuff ;-)
Anyway, this month's challenge is to use embroidery floss in a fun and inventive way on your project. This could include stitching, wrapping it around and tying it like ribbon, braiding, accenting tags, embroidered patterns or anything else you can dream up!
I just got the first stamp set Modern Basics, that Maile Belles designed--she's one of my favorite designers. Just LOVE her clean and simple style! Well, that's what I used for this card, and I really love how it turned out. This was so fun to make--I'm really glad I got this set. I know I'll be playing with it again soon--there are so many things you can do with it!!

If you look closely, I used embroidery floss to stitch around the edges of the middle butterfly. I used a paper piercer to pierce the holes, threaded the needle with the floss, and stitched away. I think it's a neat look. Maybe if I used yellow floss instead, it may have "popped" more against the black ink.
I WOULD LOVE YOUR FEEDBACK, I ALWAYS APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS!
