A new Allsorts Challenge begins today and Sarah has chosen the theme of 'Colours of Summer'. There is also the usual option of Anything Goes.
I haven't made a card with cross stitching on for quite a while, so I thought I would include stitching on this card. I decided on a colourful summer bloom. I'm not a flower expert, but I guess this might be a hibiscus. I used a Marianne Designs 'Cross Stitch Circle' die and die cut into a larger circle. The stitching was down with crochet cotton. I used a free Marianne Designs pattern which you can download HERE. I layered the completed stitched pattern on a pink Memory Box 'Stitched Scalloped Circle' die cut. The background was embossed with a Spellbinders 'Dainty Dots' embossing folder.
There is a fabulous prize of a butterfly stamp and stencil from Visible Image for the randomly drawn winner.
I am joining in the following challenges:
