Hello Everyone!
It is time for the new Words 2 Craft By challenge!

Our inspiration for April/May challenge:
No Winter lasts forewer, no Spring skips its turn.
April is a promise that May is bound to keep, and we know it.
Hal Borland
For today’s card I decided to combine Cross Stitching and No-line coloring! I just can not stop making cards with cross stitched details. It is amazing addition, and I must say that the receivers are delighted. They want more cards like this. That means I have to buy the new big Cross-stitch Die-namics from MFT.
Thanks to the MFT cross stitched printable I was able to create this embroidery pattern. It is beautiful, especially in this color combination.
For my flowers and leaves I used MFT In Bloom and Plentiful Petals Stamps sets and coordinating dies. I stamped them with Banana Split and Limelight Premium dye ink and after that I colored them with Copics. ( G20, G22, G24 / Y06, Y17 / YR04, YR07). I also added some highligts with Uni Ball White gel pen on colored images.
For my Sentiment I used Simon Says Stamp Abby’s Spring Showers and stamped on my panel with Memento Black ink. The panel is die cut with MFT A2 Stitched Rectangle Stax set 1.
Supply list:
-MFT In Bloom Stamps set and Die-namcis
-MFT Plentiful Petals Stamps set and Die-namics
-MFT Cross -Stitch Tag Die-namics
-MFT A2 Stitch Rectangle Stax Set 1 Die-namics

Hi Kristina,
Your card is gorgeous! Your cross stitching is beautiful and I LOVE how you have combined it with the amazingly coloured, stamped die-cuts. Yellow is not a colour I use often, but you have inspired me to use it more.
Hugs,
Jennifer.

I saw this at Time Out & had to come check it out! Absolutely gorgeous card! I recently got the MFT stitched tag so I could try to get back to doing some cross stitching after nearly 20 years of not doing it. You’ve totally inspired me!
