    I’m a little confused by the title of this post, as it doesn’t look like Heather used a diecut on her card…. she stamped directly onto her cardstock and sewed around it… Do we need to use a diecut?

    Love the stitching effect on her card. I have not tried this technique, but I think it will definitely be put to use soon.

    Yes, it must have been a typo..as no die cuts are used. Looks great though,I really like it–thanks for sharing Heather!

    Nice card! Love the movement created by the flowing sentiment and the sparkle of the rinestones. The stiching adds just the right touch of texture to complete the card! : )

    I love this technique used n cards/layouts it really gives it a homespun feel rather you choose to hand stitch or use a sewing machine. I was curious about one thing thou, did you do the same stitch around the entire image, or did you change your stitch pattern in different areas? Or maybe I need to invest in some glasses. (which could very well be)
    I love seeing the design team in action, plenty of inspiration on MIM for sure!
