This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble Challenge #180 "Stitch It Up" wherein I used both a background diamond die and a scalloped frame to meet the requiremen of stitches.
Twisted Sister's optional twist was to use the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #604, a fun sketch, but didn't know where I was going with it. The poinsettia band die gave me both the buckle and the band and a couople gold gems were added kitty-corner to the poinsettia with a larger gem middle of flower.
The poinsettia band die was cut using patterned paper three times for dimension plus widen the band, adhered to the stitched frame, and bordered with the same patterned paper. Sentiment was die cut using white to blend in with the background.
Please hop on over and join us at Double Trouble. Have fun with our challenge requirement and play along with optional twists to be eligible to enter your project in our partner's challenge while earning additional chances to our random draw.

Wonderful CAS card, and such a pretty pierced background! Glad you joined us at the Alphabet Challenge!
This is so pretty! I love the clean elegance of it! The stitched background with the scalloped edge looks so good and I love that you made the poinsettia dimensional!
