365 Cards- Day 129 and 3 other challenges

My card today meets the requirements of 4 different challenges.

1. Day 129 over at 365 Cards is titled 'You have me in Stitches' here is what the challenge entails-

Stitch an image on your card. Not just around the outside of the card, but an actual image. A flourish DOES count, since these are typically quite detailed.

2. Cute Card Thursday #67 is 'Stitch in Time'

This week we want to see some sewing, either faux of real, on your creation!


3. A Spoon Full of Sugar # 59 is 'Hearts'
For our challenge this week we would love to see Hearts on your creations

4. Pile It On 'Make it Different'

This week's challenge is to use THREE DIFFERENT EMBELLISHMENTS - your choice - but must be different types

Ok so there are the challenges and here is my card



My 3 different embellishments are the Heart Charm, Ribbon and Gems.

I stamped the image and went round it with a needle before stitching the design, I don't know the make of the stamp, its one I have had a while.

I added the Heart charm (I found it in a drawer when I was packing yesterday) whilst stitching the Heart and added a small length of Ribbon

Sentiment was stamped in 2 half's by masking the stamp

Butterfly was printed on my PC and coloured

Gems from my stash.

Hope you like it
