PTI March 2011 Blog Hop

March's PTI blog hop challenge is to use embroidery floss in a fun and inventive way.

I kept it clean and simple for this hop, but added some color.  The little animals from Tiny Treats Birthday are on parade to create a sweet baby shower card.
There is floss wrapped in between each strip to add some texture and fun!  I taped the floss on the back for all the stripes, then used just a bit of sticky tape to hold the top and bottom stripes in place.
Another CAS and QAE card!  Of course this card was not exactly quick, as I made it while sneaking in some t.v. time (A.I. to be exact - shhhh!).
Have a wonderful weekend and have fun hopping!!!
Smiles,
Julie
Details:  Stamps - Tiny Treats Birthday (PTI), Ink - Momento and SU, Floss - DMC, CS - White, Aqua Mist and Spring Moss (PTI) & So Saffron (SU) and embossing folder- Swiss Dots (Cuttlebug).

    Julie, this is so cute! I don't have any embroidery floss so I'm now playing again this month.
