ODBD July Challenge...Stitching!

The Our Daily Bread Design July challenge at the Operation Write Home this month is stitching! I like adding faux stitching with a gel pen, as shown in this birthday card made with the Birthday Bash cricut cartridge. I think it adds a nice touch to this cute little lady!

I used a zig zag stitch using my sewing machine for the cheery card below, made with the Nifty Fifties cricut cartridge and a variety of Cuttlebug embossing folders.



Finally, I made this last card using the Campin' Critters cartridge for a co-worker who was leaving our department.  When I was finished, I thought it needed "something" and I added just a few black zig zag stitches on my sewing machine to add some detail to the end of the banner.


And now for the punch line...


Be sure and link up your cards featuring stitching this month, as it means free shipping for OWH to send cards to our troops.

Thanks for visiting my blog! Have a great day!

Blessings,

OWH Things with Wheels

Here's a fun card I made with the Nifty Fifties cartridge a few weeks back.  It was inspired by the OWH Things with Wheels card challenge, but I forgot to post and link before the challenge closed!

The car (page 24) was cut at 1 3/4" and the red arrow is from my Smash book supplies.  The sentiment is from the Mini Messages set from Scrappy Mom's.

This cartridge has a lot of fun cuts and will be great for Father's Day and other masculine cards!



I THINK I'm done posting for today, but hope to be back later in the week with some new creations! Hope you're having a crafty and creative day!

Blessings,
