Stitching On Black Cardstock With Kara

Hey guys it's Kara. I know you have been loving these stitching dies as much as I have! There are so many ways to use them and today I thought I'd share a look at stitching on black cardstock.

Originally, when using this large heart from Needle Point Hearts, I went right to white cardstock thinking that the floss would pop. However, if you choose the right colors, your floss will pop on black too! Play around and try different colors. I knew I wanted to use white and hot pink seemed like another natural choice. When I laid the floss on my cardstock it looked great!

I just did some simple stitching around the heart starting with white on the outsides, moving to light pink and then finally a darker pink in the center. I added a sentiment from Bold Banner Greetings on a simple banner die cut from Bountiful Blooms. I didn't want to cover up too much of the stitched heart.

Super simple, and super sweet! Thanks so much for stopping by today!
