I have to say this Needle & Thread stamp set and bundle from the new 2019 Occasions Catalog was not at the top of my list of must-haves. Even though I am not a needle pointer, I can now see the value in the stitching stamp images and pretty stitched patterns.
The show-stopper of this bundle is the Needlepoint Elements Framelits Dies. The large floral die (upper right)has the most beautiful imprint without actually cropping out the image. And the label die (lower right) gives the stitched look that is perfectly cropped with the Everyday Label Punch (as you can see on this sentiment tag).
The colors I used were Berry Burst and Tranquil Tide, which picked the print from the Needlepoint Nook DSP up beautifully. I stamped the floral image and leaves first before running the layer through the Big Shot with the Subtle Dynamic TIEF. I cropped out two leaf dies and adhered them to the right corners for a little balance.
I hope you liked todays card! And if you were like me and passed over this set at first… come back and give it another look now. I think you’ll be happy you did!
