The stitching that I did on my card is faux stitching using a black Zig Memory pen.

Tiffany Doodles has been very sweet to give each of the SMC DT an image to work with. The image that I was given to use is called Blue Bird. I just love this bird digi. It's so lifelike and was so much fun to work with.
