Our challenge this week is to use sewing on our cards so I brought out my sewing machine and dusted it off in anticipation of the upcoming card. My husband then got all excited thinking his pants were getting hemmed so I put it away before he got all his sewing out and I decided to do some hand sewing on this instead! Pretty simple running stitch around the inside frame with jute.

What a great idea to use the jute for a frame. Love it. What is with these guys thinking we are going to do mending? They should know by now we never use an item for it's original purpose! They never seem to get it! LOL
