Stamping and Stitching

When I ride in the car and Bob is driving, I find it hard to sit still with my hands in my lap! So I'm always looking for something to take along. Especially since we live 30 minutes from most major shopping and church. I have started stamping images on material and hand-stitching them out, then using the figures on a card. Here is the first one.

Friend to Friend

This wolf seems to be wanting to visit with the grizzly and cub. While they are enemies, they went together well on this card. I used mica chips from Montana to add some natural sparkle.

Moose Crossing

What could be more Montana than a moose crossing? I had fun with this using an embossing folder of animal prints, a little stitching around the moose and moose footprints in the background.

Bitterroot

 

Montana's State Flower is Bitterroot. I found this picture on the internet and copied and cut it out. The picture is placed on Magpie feathers from Helena, Montana.

Fabric Stamping

Didn't this wolf turn out beautiful on the fabric? I love the stamped effect and it is sitting on top of a Magpie's feathers. The background is from a wolf paw stamp.
