Rustic Fall Florals for Stitching Saturday

 


My husband helped me put all the flowers to bed for the season, and we planted the last of the bulbs for next Spring.  Snow is in the forecast, who knows if it will come, or if it will stay, but it always feels so good to get buttoned up for Fall.  I’ve been working on this rustic card for a few days and finished it up when the yardwork was done.  It’s using a stitching die from Spellbinders called Stitched Card Front, Border and Flower.  


It was nice to get a completely different look using Kraft cardstock for the stitching die, and rich autumn colours in my embroidery floss.  Last time I used this die HERE, I used a much simpler stitch.  This time, I “edged” all the stitching with a simple backstitch.  It really fills in the colours nicely.  


A pretty foiled birthday script from Spellbinders, Yana Sentiments/Foil Basics gives a little shine to the design, as well as a few enamel dots.  


Feels just right for Fall!  Thanks for joining me today.
