Stitching up some artwork

We loved everyone's Back to School projects - thanks for playing along! Our prize winner was selected by Random.org and the winner of Christine's awesome package is......19. KIM! Congratulations Kim! Please send me your address so Christine can get your prize sent out. My email is mbryt1@bex.net

A BIG Thank You to Christine for sponsoring our prize. Don't forget that you can find a link to Christine's blog and website (as well as all of our tremendous sponsors) on our sponsor page.

This week, we are welcoming a returning sponsor - Ruth Nava. Ruth will be providing a prize to a lucky player from this week's challenge which is all about STITCHING! This can be real stitching or faux stitching, hand stitching or pen drawn stitching - whatever you would like as long as we can see signs of stitching on your artwork (and of course, you use mostly CTMH products!)

Our Guest DT, Amy, is joining us for her final challenge as part of the DT and she sewed up a great project - take a look:

Isn't that adorable? Thanks Amy for joining us - we've enjoyed your beautiful artwork!

And now for the rest of the team and their stitched projects:








So what do you think? Pretty darn awesome, aren't they? I always enjoy seeing what variety this team - and all of YOU - come up with, each and every challenge. Are you ready to get stitching? We are looking forward to seeing what you can create. Sew (hehehe) get creative, post your artwork and then leave us a link. Be sure to post before 10:00 pm EST on Sunday in order to be eligible for Ruth's prize!

Ready, set, STITCH!

  9. I love stitching on projects. My friend Alicia always laughs at me because I enjoy doing so by hand, although this example shows that I figured out how to use my sewing machine - for the important stuff of course sewing on scrapbooking & stamping projects. :)
