Card Size: approx. 3.5" x 4.75"

I made this easel card using ovals because it reminds me of an egg shape, and I thought it would be perfect with the cute little chick image. A big thank-you to Bugaboo Stamps for letting me use the digital stamp EC Flower image, isn't she sweet?

Masculine Stitches Card

Hello and welcome here! Have been over to Top Tip Tuesday to see if you have Caught Our Eye?? The Stitches Challenge is 1/2 way through, you have 1 more week to enter for a chance at some great prizes. You can find all the info at Top Tip Tuesday.

To continue with the Stitches theme, I decided to make a quick masculine card.

Card Size: 4.25" x 5.5"

I cut an oval into the planks patterned paper and then added foam squares behind to make a frame for the lighthouse. I hand stitched x's along the oval and in the corners...just like cross-stitching. I used a felt pen to add some detail around the oval and corners. I added Stickles to the glass to make it 'shine'.

Grass-YG03, YG17, YG25
Sky-BG0000

Recipe: Digital Stamp-Cornish Heritage Farms Lighthouse 3, PP-My Mind's Eye Dolled Up "Day" Worn Paper, CTMH CS-Black & White Daisy, CTMH Ink-Black & Outdoor Denim, SS-Flourishes Taglines, Black Floss, Spellbinders Ovals & Banner Tags, Black Felt Pen, Foam Squares, Stickles-Golden Rod & Crystal Ice.

Hope you're having a great week!
