A summery stitch up over at ASOS and TLT!!

(Please scroll down for my Sparkles Creations Rubber Stamps DT post!)

Hi all!  I am being a bit cheeky today - I have combined two of my DT challenges into one!  So over at Totally Ladybug Tuesday, the lovely Sue has challenged us to a summer birthday and over at A Spoonful of Sugar, the gorgeous Ingrid has challenged us to sewing, faux or real!  Well, I made my card and it has both so - voila! - here is my post for both challenges!



This is Magnum & Lily on Holiday.  I just love this scene and I wished I was sitting on the beach with them too!  The sentiment is from the LCI It's Only Words 2 and I matched it up with October Afternoon's Seaside.  I am embarassed to say that I found five October Afternoon paper pads that I forgot I had!  So you'll be seeing a lot more of these!!



I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, October Afternoon Seaside paper pack
Stamps: LCI  Magnum & Lily on Holiday, It's Only Words 2
Mediums: Copics
Accents: floss from stash
Tools: Xcut border punch system, Nestabilities rectangle and label die
