HI stitching card with Be Bold Blooms

 Hi everyone! Today I'm sharing another stitching card using the Be Bold Blooms flower die cuts I had left over from my sister's birthday card. I used a slightly bluer tone for my background and embossed it with the Leafy 3D embossing folder. I combined the Stitched Hi and the new Punctuation and Symbols stitching die sets. I just love how it turned out!

This time I stitched with a dark purple floss to compliment the dark purple die cuts and added a foiled sentiment from my stash. I've been asked where I get my floss and when I first started, I was torn between getting the highest quality floss by DMC (which has a higher price) or a mid grade floss off Amazon. I went with the Amazon floss, the bundle I purchased had 200 colors, so it was hard to pass up! I'm really happy with them, they isn't as smooth as DMC, so separating the strands isn't as nice and they do get twisted a bit when stitching, but nothing I can't live with. I'll link everything I purchased below.

If you're new to stitching, be sure check out my Instagram page. I posted a 1 minute reel that shows all the steps. When I first tried stitching, I scoured YouTube to get an idea on how and where to start. So I made this short reel to show how I do it for anyone curious about stitching.
