Oh how I love to sew on my creations. I don't do it very often because it is a pain to get my machine out of the cabinet.  Well, with my new room, I have it out most of the time now so I am hoping to add more stitching to my creations. We will see. :)  But today I wanted to show you how fun a card can be by just dressing it up with a bit of pearls, stitching, and ribbon!

This card was super easy to create but it looked rather boring until I added the little "touches."  I took two pieces of Memory Box Frond 6x6 paper and cut them to fit my card. I wanted a bit of the Memory Box Mocha notecard to show so I left a larger portion showing at the top. Once I cut the Frond pieces to fit, I added brown stitching to match the notecard.  Then I added the ribbon and attached it all to the notecard.

Next, I stamped the Memory Box Flower Bundle stamp {E1321} onto white cardstock, rounded the corners, and inked the edges. After attaching to my card, I finished with Memory Box white pearl stickers.  Just the perfect touches to dress this card up a bit.

So, as you create with your Memory Box goodies, try to add Memory Box pearls, stitching, and ribbon, and see how different your card looks!  I would love to see links to your creations.  Feel free to link them here, and have a great Tuesday!
