Hello there, Michelle Short here to share some inspiration using the Limited Edition Stitching Die & Stamp Collection. I have two cards to share with you today. A Christmas card with simple stitching and then an everyday card with the stitching stepped up a little.

There is also a stitched rectangle die that can cut the whole panel out.
