CARDZ TV Challenge #102






(I did some faux stitching on some of the squares)

For the CARDZ TV Challenge #102 the theme was "A Stitch In Time" make a card for any occasion using real or faux stitching. I used faux stitching on mine. I have a baby shower coming up in a couple months and my cousin is having a baby boy. When I saw what the challenge was I knew what I wanted to make. Something with a Quilted background. I love making cards like this. I need to how ever get a better paper trimmer. I have bought new blades an it just won't cut smooth. So time to invest in a better trimmer :) especially if I want to make more quilt style cards.

Check out her blog for more info and address of where to send. We are trying to reach 100 cards. I also don't have Stand and Salute cart or the 4th of July one.
