Faux Stitching is all I know

Photo Details

Poster: nutsymuhl

This is for the Thread VSN challenge. When I saw the challenge originally, I started to get hives. I DON'T SEW!! LOL! Then I saw the magic word "faux" and quickly calmed down. I pulled out my trusty All in a Row set and got to work. The image was inked in Mellow Moss and sprayed with water, before stamping. All edges were sponged with Chocolate Chip and River Rock ink.
