Sewing Challenge

Here's a card with sewn accents for the sewing challenge over at Less is More . I am also submitting it for the Back in Black challenge at Cas-ual Fridays.To make this card I started with a black card base and used my sewing machine to stitch gold leaves and stems on it.  On a separate piece of black cardstock, I sewed the gold petals (in a straight line), detached them from the card stock, separated them into sets of two and laid them out in a flower shape.  Around the outside of the card, I used  a gold marker to create faux stitching.  I finished the card by adding a gold piece of patterned paper to the inside for recording a message.
