Welcome to our Technique Blog Hop!
“Sew What?!”
Each month we share with you a different technique, featuring Close To My Heart products. This month 13 of us are showcasing “Sewing”.
This blog hop is one big circle, so you can start wherever you want and continue through to see all the fabulous artwork. Just keep clicking the link in each post to go to the next page. The page just before me is Annemarie Julian so if you are coming from there, you are on the right track! From here you’ll visit Vandra Stenton‘s page. In case you get lost, you can get a complete list of participants at the bottom of this post.
This month we’re all talking about how to make use of sewing, stitching or faux-stitching in your paper crafting. I’ve chosen to make cards which feature two of the new CTMH Thin Cut collections: Thin Cuts-Shaker Window & Confetti and Decorative Borders. Here is the first project, which uses the large, stitched & scalloped border Thin Cut out of the Decorative Borders collection. I have a shaky hand when it comes to drawing stitching, and often I smudge it while I’m working! Using these faux-stitching Thin Cuts solves both of those problems.


Thank you so much for stopping by! Before heading to the next page, please consider saying hello or leaving me a comment to let me know what you think of the technique or the cards. I always love hearing from you. After that, keep following the links in each post and check out what we have to share with you. I hope you enjoy your time with us, see some cool projects and get some terrific tips and ideas!
Now…go see what Vandra Stenton has to share with you, and happy crafting!
