Kim will start the samples her lovely card using Fleur Anya and machine stitching...

Sharon used High Hopes stamp Cheeky Sean and Smile Popcorn Bear for the seniment. There's lots of machine stitching on the panels, and even some faux stitching on the sentiment panel that was done with a marker. She also used Ivory May Arts Silk Ribbon along with the Bow Easy; a heart charm, a large flower spacer and a Basic Grey brad for the center of it.

Chris has used Stampavie's Isabelle and Puppy Coco , Popcorn Bear Thanks a Bunch for her sentiment and zig zag stitching throughout her easel card. She also used Basic Grey Eva, large flower spacer (which is hidden by the bow in the photo), pink silk ribbon from May Arts, Labels 4 and 10 Spellbinders, and Kaiser Craft Pearls.

Jeanette has used Kraftin’ Kimmie's stamp: Moonlight Whispers Jack and her DP is Cosmo Cricket Joyride. She created some "faux" stitching by paper piercing and then using a black sharpie marker to create the stitches.
