Cross Stitch Hearts

Hello!

 I wanted to take the opportunity to play along at the fab Twofer Challenge before it closes.  The theme this time is hearts and I used a lovely cross stitch heart die from Waffle Flower on my cards - to make a mother's day and hello card.


I rotated the heart die to create a flower on this card:


My second card is a CAS mother's day design which includes a sentiment from Visible Image.


I shall also link this card up at Time Out where the theme is hobbies.  Cross stitch is a hobby that I have dabbled in over the years but I often lose patience with it!

Thanks for stopping by :)

    Wow! What great cards! Wonderful designs...Like you I was a cross stitcher for many years. I wish I could still do it...these cards brought back many happy memories for me.

    Sweet cards Sarah. So clever to use the heart die to create petals of a flower, and your mother card is just beautiful! Thanks for joining us at Twofer Card Challenge.

    These really grab my cross-stitch loving heart, Sarah! I did quite a lot of it before I got into card-making and really enjoyed it. Unfortunately, I'm NOT good at multi-tasking and can only concentrate on one hobby at a time, so no more needlework for me! This is such a great stamp; it makes it look like you really did cross-stitch on your cards! I love both of your separate occasion designs!! Thank you so much for playing along in Twofer Card Challenge #2!! Hugs, Darnell

    I love the way you turned the heart into a flower, Sarah. Cross stitch is another of the hobbies I played around with at one time. I got bored and the old eyesight became a problem so I gave it up.

    Two stunning cards! I love the creative way you used the die to create a large flower. The mother's day card is so beautiful in it's simplicity, I love the CAS look and that die just really is a stunner. Thanks for joining us at TIME OUT!
