Well Hello and Welcome
I love the look of stitching on a card, but don't own a sewing machine. I decided to get the look with out the hassle. Here's how I got on.

Method
First I inked up the dotty heart stamp in bumble gum ink. Then stamped the sentiment and coloured it in with the pink jelly roll pen. Placed this on to a foam mat and went around the heart piecing holes evenly spaced.
I then die cut out the scalloped heart which already has stitching on it.
After layering the hearts together, I then re- poked the heart through again, as its easier two poke layer by layer than two layers of card together.
After stitching this I added to a black 6 x 6 " piece of card stock. Punch holes around the mat and sewed as before.
I love this different look to a card.
The other card I used a pen in black to add faux stitching.
use the pen to join up the stitching marks on the die cut.
Thank for Popping Bye
Happy Paper Craft
