I hope everybody had a wonderful Valentine's Day! I did-it was nice and low key.
Time is ticking for the challenge at The Craft Barn but I finally have made my ATC for their Alphabet Challenge. The letter now is E. I chose the word embroider. And that is what I did on this ATC. I used a little walnut distress ink to better highlight my word plus I used a straight stitch to section off my word from the rest of the page.
Here's a close up. The flowers and basket are from a design in the book Creative Embroidery on Paper by Erica Fortgens. I had originally heard about sewing on paper from Ecstasy Crafts many moons ago.
Thank you for stopping by! Until next time my friends... I wonder what the next letter will be! :)

How pretty this is.
LOVE how you embroidered around your word! Clever! LOVE your other stitching, too! FAB ATC!
Hi Carly! I really did sew it onto the card. I used a pattern for the flowers. I pierced it then "embroidered" it. :)
Fabulous ATC, very clever embroidery.
Katy this is a gorgeous little ATC with so much detail - very creative.
