Faux or real.....
stitching that is.....and thats the challenge this week over at Lil Lolita Boutique challenges!
yep its thursday again..can you believe it...my god these weeks just keep rolling along at such a pace dont they. i think they need to slow down to let us catch up...
Anywho.....what was I here for...o yes.....Stitching!!!!
now I have gone the faux stitching route on my card as well....quite frankly its justtoo much effortto go out into the shed to find my sewing machine, then drag it inside, set it up, blah blah blah i'm sure you get the picture...so much easier to just punch some holes and drag out the white gel pen and presto....stitching lol
Here is my effort...

Cute as a Button!!!
Buttons buttons buttons....do you have a stash somehwere? i bet you do..and I have the perfect challenge to use them on because over at Lil Lolita Boutique Challenge the theme this week is BUTTONS!!!
Now i had big plans for using buttons but it kind of went by the wayside...lol
You see I have been dying...dying i tell you to create a card using the headshot technique with the Lil Lolita digi stamps. So I got to printing and colouring and decided to use the ultra bright and gorgeous DeLovely papers by Cosmo cricket (*warning sunglasses may be required*) then created my card. I then wentthrough my rather dismal button stash onlyto find I really didnt have any buttons to match...eek!!
So this is the best i came up with....maybe next time i should choose the buttons before I pick the paper...lol

And this is what it looks like when the slider is open.
i made the message as a mat rather than a bit that slides out.

(plus I need to remember to put something plain behind my cards instead of the kitchen bench lol)
Gorgeous image is a Bildamalarna, yummy Die-cut border is a Magnolia doohickey and other die cut is a Nestabilitie labels 12, all available from Bizzy Bec's.
