Spooky Surprise

Last Tuesday for Tuesday Treats Paula from Pollycraft had three digi images for 99p with the catch that you couldn't see them before you bought them. I couldn't wait to find out what the new releases looked like and so had to buy them and they are fab-three new Halloween type images. This is the Luna Bitterfrost one. I used my new sewing machine for the first time on this card to add stitching to the patchwork panel and you can see from the results that I need A LOT more practice!! The threads keep getting in a messy and I don't think I have the thread tension right yet, but it was fun.
I will enter the card into the following challenges- CES (magical or spooky), I love Promarkers (metal embellishment- paperclip and star), Cute Card Thursday (at the office- staples and paperclip) and Passion for Promarkers (patchwork).

That is a good offer. It's been such a long time since I've worked with images, I must pop along and have a peek me thinks!
Sewing machines are tricky aren't they? I hope you figure it all out but in the mean time I love the grungy feel it gives. I used to get so frustrated that my machine would not do one full circuit without at least 2 mistakes, in the end I gave up and went for the worn/grungy/vintage look myself.
Fingers crossed for you Louise.
