Papertrey Ink March Blog Hop!!!

Hello readers!!! I'm participating in my first ever PTI blog hop this month!!!  I hope that you are all enjoying the blog hop so far!!!  =) 
 
This month the challenge was to use embroidery floss!  I've been using floss a lot lately on my projects, and so I had a plan for this card. Here's the card:
I thought it would be fun to attach my die cut with some floss that was "fanned out" on the card for a dramatic effect!  I also distressed the edges and created my own background image!  This card was also inspired by the Papertrey Paper Dolls Challenge #34 - a thank you card with a stamped background image.  Enjoy! 

Happy hopping everyone!  Please head over to Nichole's Blog in order to see the entire list of participants!  =)
