Over on the Nutshells blog I discovered that they are starting Nutty Nutshells Wednesdays and they will be issuing a challenge twice a month. For their first challenge, you had to make a Halloween card and use this adorable freebie digi image "Pecan Nut Halloween Witch".
I sewed the buttons on the ribbon with DMC floss and the stitching on the two panels is all done by hand with the same DMC floss using a back stitch ~ took a lot more time than I anticipated, but I do like how it looks. The sewn panels as well as the image are raised on dimensionals.
