LSS is Sew Nice

Happy Thursday! I know it has been a short work week, but I am sooo ready for the weekend. I wanted to do a nice chatty post today, but I really don't have anything to say. My friends will find that shocking but it's true. So, with that introduction, I will get right on to my Lindsay's Stamp Stuff project for the week.








Remember to stop by the rest of the DT to check out their projects this week. Lindsay will have a special freebie to share with you. Lisa is not posting this week. She lost power and is cleaning up after hurricane Hermine. If you would like, stop by her blog and leave her some love for when she gets her PC up and running.

Love this!! I think you've used the spool before and I fell in love with it then and again now!! My mom would love this card too as a sewing fanatic!!
I love the sewing on your cards too. I told my mom that in about 6 months I'm going to invest in a machine and she'll have to give me lessons :)

Fantastic card! That spool of thread is great and I love all the extras you added.

Melissa Craig said...

This is wonderful Cheryl! I love the real thread on the spool - so much dimension.

Micki said...

awww girl, I always sound so dumb in my posts and because it's always late when I write them up, my brain is mush and they never make sense.

Ok your card (cards as in all of them) is gorgeous. I love how you incorporate the embellishments, type of papers, etc. takes me forever - even longer if I try to follow a sketch. lol, sometimes I wonder what I'm doing ....

hope your trip was safe. hugs
