Well, I absolutely love the new mermaid Tilda stamp that was part of the Summer kit. I think she is absolutely adorable. I decided to use this image to make a card for a few challenges. Scrappy Frogs is having a stitching challenge, so I combined that with the sketch from Just Magnolia. Here is a picture of the Just Magnolia sketch.
And here is a picture of my card.
I really wanted to sew on this card with my machine, but I could not get the needle to stay threaded to save my life. So, I stitched all the way around the 2 paper pieces without any thread in the needle. Then, I drew in the "stitches" with an aqua copic spica pen. It kind of makes it look like I sewed with aqua thread (which I could never do because I don't know how to wind the bobbin or anything like that so I stick with white). The paper is Basic Grey 2 Scoops. I didn't add the sentiment like in the sketch because honestly, I ran out of time. I had all kind of issues going on yesterday and this is the best I could do LOL. All of the little gems around Tilda which are hard to see in the photo were set with my Irock tool. They are clear crystals and some blue and green metallic studs.
