My earlier cards with this dotted stamp were very bright, so it was fun to try a more muted look. The dots look handsome on tan card stock with a dark blue border and sentiment. I like the stitched sentiment banner, inspired by the set's first sample card on the Concord & 9th store site. After trying a blue floss for my stitching (too bold) and a light tan (too pale), I settled on the golden brown color (just right!)
Card details:
- Card stock is Papertrey Ink (PTI) fine linen (tan), enchanted evening (dark blue), and rustic white.
- Embroidery floss is DMC 436.
- Dies are from PTI thank you kindly (banner), PTI stitching lines (banner holes), and Spellbinders card creator A-2 matting basics set B.
- The dots are from Concord & 9th bitty burst turnabout, stamped with PTI blueberry sky (medium blue), Hawaiian shores (turquoise), honey nut (golden brown), and Americana (rustic red) inks.
- The sentiment "thank you so much" is from PTI thank you kindly (retired), stamped with PTI enchanted evening ink.
