BGC#20 - Stitch it + sizzix post

Hello friends ! 

We are playing an interesting challenge at Beyond Grey Challenges

well all you have to do is add some Stitching to your 

Card or Layout. 

simple ? 

and this week our generous returning sponsor is 

Crafters corner

 So here is what i made. I had so much fun creating this :) 

For the card base i have used  Sizzix Bigz XL Die - Card Fronts, Notched &Beveled
How i enjoy cutting cards with this die !
 its got 2 designs that give u beautiful cuts , no need of using your trimmer , or scissors
That a g8 die to use. I made it a standing card but one can use it both ways.   
The sentiment is stamped with inkadinakado sentiments.

 I have added some hand done running stitch to the card using a yellow silk thread
 and some faux stitch too.

The flowers are die cut with memory box dies.
I inked the flowers first , and then added crackle accents on top.
Love the effect it gives :) 

Do share your thoughts on this :) 

and you all are welcome to play @  Beyond Grey Challenges 
Just add a Stitch to it :)
