Spellbinders May release: UR Wonderful

Hi everyone! The Spellbinders May release is here and I am excited to share a fun card using a couple new dies along with 2 old favorites of mine.

Dies used on my card:

- Stitched Alphabet collection

* Letter U

* Letter R

- Stitched Alphabet Glimmer Descriptors

- Lacey Squares Nestabilities

- Be Bold Blooms 

My card features the new Stitched Alphabet collection, the Letter U and the Letter R. This was my first time doing any stitching on cards and I really love the look! After watching a few YouTube videos I jumped right in and already I know I have to buy floss in every color! I am hooked!!

I die cut the letters 2 times and glued them together. This made it a bit stronger and able to withstand the stitching better. My first attempt using 1 die cut ended up bent in a few of the thinner letter areas (like the bottom connection of the letter U).

The sentiments are from the new Stitched Alphabet Glimmer Descriptors foiled in Silver. This new glimmer set comes with a million words - Just kidding, it's a set of 27 and they are a wide variety of fun words. There is a word for everything.

And this cute card would not be complete without some flowers from my favorite flower die set, Be Bold Blooms and YES, IT IS IN STOCK! Go order one while they last!

I added tiny gems to the center of each stitched "flower" to give it that extra sparkle and it turned out so pretty IRL.

So I am curious, have you all tried the stitching dies? If so do you enjoy it? I wonder if this is a new fad or it will stick around and be worth it to purchase a ton of floss!! Spellbinders sells DMC Floss in a variety of bundles, and DMC is the highest quality floss. BUT Amazon is a cheaper alternative and there are some inexpensive kits that has a lower grade floss already wound on plastic spools. I'm deciding which way to go. Which do you recommend? I'd love to hear from you!

Thank you for stopping by and have a great day! Here are some close up pictures.
