Sew Much Fun

All month long Cornish Heritage Farms is sponsoring challenges over at Gingersnap Creations. This week is a color challenge: orange, green and brown.
Sometimes the ideas in my head take some strange directions. In this case, I went a little nuts with the sewing machine...

I had to have this Forest Friendzy set several months ago yet this was the first time it saw ink. That gnome cracks me up! I stamped a little scene and colored it with Copics and then added a gnome that I had cut out.
I set out to stitch around the edges of the panel. I don't know what possessed me, lol...I just kept going. If the gnome wasn't already down, I probably would have stitched around everything else as well. Something different. I think I like it.

Have you checked out this weeks tutorial over at the CHF blog? Joanne will show you how to create some fun with glitter. AND there are stamps to be won! You have until Thursday 12n EST to leave a comment to get in on the blog candy.

Time to get ready for work. Thanks for stopping by.

This card is great. The sewing is perfect and doesn't look over the top at all.
