Happy Friday friends! Today I'm sharing my fun card featuring Spellbinders March Stitching Die of the Month called Stitched Read & Sip! If you've ever thought about trying a stitching die, this is a good one to try. It has minimal stitching and would also be beautiful without any stitching!
All of Spellbinders monthly clubs, including the Stitching Dies of the Month have a window of time to enroll and receive that month's featured product. This month's "window" is March 6-27. The only time it might not be available is if the item has sold out for the month. Also, you can cancel at any time. Check out all of the specific details here.
I die cut the Stitched Read & Sip from purple, green, yellow, and neutral cardstocks. All available cardstocks are linked in the list below. I added a bit of shading to the cup and flowers with coordinating ink.
Then I used purple and green DMC embroidery floss for the quick stitching. The thread on the book is one that I had in my stash that I saved years ago when I used to do counted cross-stitch a lot.
To adhere the stitched layers to the base layer, I just put glue on the back of the stitching and aligned it with the base piece. It gives instant dimension!
I embossed a white cardstock panel with the Checkered Scallops embossing folder. This is the March Embossing Folder of the Month. I embossed all but about ¾" of the bottom edge of the panel. Then I glued it to an A2 card base.
I adhered the Stitched Read & Sip elements to the card. I added a sentiment from the Just Wanted to Say Glimmer set that I foiled with Fuchsia Flower Glimmer Foil. For easy foiling I used Spellbinders Glimmer Specialty cardstock.
I hope I've inspired you today to try these fabulous stitching dies. It's really fun and makes a very special and unique card to give. Thank you for stopping by!
