Cards with stitching!

I had my sewing machine out the other day doing some repairs and decided to stitch up some paper scraps to use on cards.  It was so much fun that I just kept sewing.  I tried straight stitching but ended up doing most of the sewing with zig-zag because it showed up so much better.  


These are 3 of my favorites.  The bottom one is one I made for my sister for her birthday.  I made a ribbon flower and used a digital cut stem for it with some dry-embossing for the back of the quote panel.  I love the old looking colors and the way it looks vintage.





These few cards I made using paint chips for a little pop of color or a white place to stamp my sentiments.  I really like the paint chips and the way they look.  I hope the paint stores don't boot me out for taking a few chips every time I go in for a visit!
