As my dad always says when we pull in the driveway..."Fishhook! End of the line!" If you've just come from
Monique's blog, then congratulations on making it all the way through the blog hop! If you're just stumbled upon this fishhook (ow!), then you'll want to start back at
The Twinery and leave a comment on each blog in the hop for both today and Friday in order to be entered in the big drawing. You have until Friday, November 25th to comment.
The Twinery is giving away a free ultimate sampler pack and
Market Street Stamps is giving away a $25 gift certificate!
I must give props to both Mr Corgi and my pal
Emily for this card. Emily always has the most creative, out-of-the-box inspiring ideas for using twine, but it was Mr Corgi who came up with the idea of cross-stitching with it using the cane background.
After I worked out the letters on a scrap sheet, I pierced the holes, then just backstitched the letters. Doesn't the Computer Cutie look so happy to be blogging?
Here's a close-up of the stitching:
Hope you enjoyed the Twinery blog hop, and if you looking for some more nerdy cards, make sure you tune back in here tomorrow!
