I combined two challenges to make this card. I used the card sketch #9 from Get Sketchy, alas I blew the deadline but will still submit it to the Cupcake Craft Challenge Buttons & Stitching.
I actually busted out the sewing machine for this creation, that alone should be worth some prize for it was stored elsewhere until today.
I used the zig-zag stitch on the base and rooster panel and just a straight stitch on the "Farmhouse" panel. I liked that paper because it had a cross-stitch theme to it. This was my first attempt at stitching and I have to say - I really enjoy it. As soon as I came across this yellow button I thought of an egg yolk which was perfect with the oval portion of the sketch.
Thanks for looking!

Hi Ameribeth, what a gorgeous card. Love the cute rooster image and the papers are perfect. The stitching looks amazing and the button does remind me of an egg yolk too Thanks for joining us at cupcake craft challenge this week. Hugs, Denise x
