MACM – Sweet
Super fast note this morning… heading out to work.
This week’s card took a LONG long time to make. I’m sure you can imagine how long it took to make the paper pieced plaid pattern, right? Yep. It took a long time. Although… I have some ideas on how to make it quicker. Stay tuned for that. :)
I used Sassafras’ Delicious Felties as inspiration for the card. Aren’t they cute?! And paired up with some Halloween chipboard stickers? Yes, Halloween! They’re American Crafts Hocus Pocus Thickers. :)
Anyhow, enjoy!

September 28th, 2009 at 10:43 amWhat a cute card! You are the Queen of Faux Stitching! I thought for sure that you had machine stitched on this card when I first saw the picture. I should have known better!
September 28th, 2009 at 10:47 amThis card is fantastic! I love it (and pretty much everything you make)!
September 28th, 2009 at 10:52 amOh my goodness!! I’m completely addicted to the Sassafrass Felties. I think I’ve purchased nearly all of them from 2 Peas! This card is so perfect; and the pink, orange and brown plaid is scrumptious! Thank you for another great card. You, my dear, have been blessed with a fabulous gift! Have a great week.

September 28th, 2009 at 12:03 pmreallyyyyy sweet…
September 28th, 2009 at 12:08 pmCute Cute! Love those felties! I know you have said this before, but I was curious what paper cutter you use? I have a fiskars little arm cutter and it doesn’t quite cut straight enough. I need to start dropping hints to my hubby for Christmas!
Just updated my FAQ to answer your question. I also posted the info in a new entry. :)
Another beauty! This must have taken forever. I wish I could do faux stitching as well as you. Great job!
September 28th, 2009 at 12:42 pmGreat card.
Did you buy those strips of paper or you cut them your self…love the color combo too.
Have a great week.
Thanks! I cut them. :)
Holy CUTE Batman!!!! Love the color combo and all the faux stitching is awesome!

September 28th, 2009 at 1:47 pmForgot to say this on my previous post today, what do you do with all these beautiful cards??

September 28th, 2009 at 2:47 pmSuch a cute card. I got my prize today in the mail…the white gel pen! Thank you!!!!
September 28th, 2009 at 3:38 pmSometimes I wish that I hadn’t discovered you until just today, so I could go back to the beginning of all your videos (again) and watch them all brand new to me. :) Beautiful work as always. What I really like with this one is showing how to use tools and just plain paper, especially good when you are trying to use up little scraps and bits. Great job.
September 28th, 2009 at 3:39 pmYou are amazing how you design these fabulous cards!
September 28th, 2009 at 4:30 pmso cute as usual

That’s such a ’sweet’ card! Love how you can use up scraps on the plaid pattern, but gosh – you have to have so much patience to adhere all those teeny tiny strips! :-)
September 29th, 2009 at 9:28 amHey, Kristina Kraft!
September 29th, 2009 at 10:21 pmWhat? Your name isn’t Kristina Kraft? Maybe it’s Kristina Faux-Stitching, or Kristina White-Gel? Ha ha. Nup!
