Hope everyone's weekend is off to a good start! It's still a bit cold here, so I'm happy to stay inside and spend the afternoon making cards :)
Today I have a birthday card to share. I also wanted to participate in this week's Lawnscaping Challenge: Stitching.
The thought of actually digging my sewing machine out and figuring out how to use it again gave me a headache, so I improvised with my paper piercer.
I stitched the bottom of the card with some gold embroidery floss, which was pretty easy to do. I do like the look of machine stitching, so maybe I'll have to get out the sewing machine at some point... some day... ;)
For the background of the card, I used Mister Huey mists (desert, letter jacket). I then added some washi paper and tape to ground the cute take-out box and fortune cookie. They're both from the Good Fortune set by Lawn Fawn-- as is the sentiment. For a little extra pizazz, I created an open take-out-box and added little colored accents to the chopsticks.
I'll also be adding this to the Moxie Fab World Challenge: The Washi Tape Challenge.
Thanks so much for visiting today!
