"Stitching" my Scraps

You ask anyone that knows me well and they would vouch for me when I say that I cannot sew.. I even struggle sewing buttons back on to things,  that is how bad I am!! I do not own a sewing machine and the only reason I own a needle and thread is cos I love to cross stitch. Saying all that I though I love to hand sew on cards. I think it can really make a card go from good to great!! So last night (using my scraps) I decided to join in the with this weeks Lil Lolita Boutique Challenge which is Stitches faux or real!! I only have two Lil Lolita stamps so I don't have too much of a choice which stamp to use but I really like Willow holding the flowers. And she looks different every time I colour her.. I don't have much stitching but it still qualifies. I actually won some doilies from a challenge I joined ages ago on the creatalicious challenge  blog and have never used them. So last night I thought I'd follow the sketch at the The Sweet Stop and it called for a circle to be used. So I got a doilie out but it was too big for my card so I just cut the inner circle out and stictched around the inside of it!! I think the end result turned out ok!!

I used Kaisercraft papers, buttons, made the flowers with Kaszazz punches and coloured willow in with aquacrayons and H20's and th doilie is from Bizzy Becs..

Here is another card I whipped up yesterday morning with my scraps. My sister wanted a little girls card and this is what i came up with!!
