Sewing on Cards.......another Gina K Technique Challenge

Oh my goodness.........Gina K has created a monster! A sewing monster that is. I have wanted to have sewing on my cards for so long and my 1st attempt wasn't pretty so I've been reluctant to attempt it again. That is until I saw Gina K's tutorial on StampTV and I promised myself I'd attempt the challenge. I am too excited that I was finally able to figure out how to do the zig zag stitch!! DH doesn't exactly have the same amount of excitement that I do.......but he was suitably impressed.....*grin*. Hope you like my card......its for a chat box chick that's a little under the weather.

Another Stamp TV challenge card

This is a card I made for the sketch challenge this week on Stamp TV. The beach chair and umbrella are from the Gina K stamp set "You are my Sunshine". The striped paper is from a local dollar store and the aqua paper is from PTI. I have always loved the color aqua and I guess it shows in the cards I make. Good thing there are lots of card challenges around to get me out of my comfort zone! The color challenge on Stamp TV this week is Kraft, Eggplant and Baja(or any similar blue-green). That will definitely take me out of my "comfort zone" color wise.........and thats gotta be a good thing! :o)
