Made Especially For You...Stitch It!!!

Welcome back for another weekly challenge with Made Especially For You. This week the challenge is to create a card using some form of stitching...this can be faux stitching or the real thing. 


Here's my take on this weeks challenge....

I chose to create a birthday card with a masculine feel to it this time around. I have 4 brother-in-laws & one brother so it's nice to have "man" cards handy : )

I used a tag with some faux stitching...added it to Kraft tag that I tea stained & inked with some Walnut Stain Distress Ink and then added my stamped sentiment & added some trim to top it off. 

The butterfly image was stamped using the same Walnut Stain DI...yes guys like butterflies too : )

Wrapped some soft checked tan ribbon around the bottom and voila!!

And one last look...
