Looking back on the art I’ve been making for the past few months I’ve done quite a bit of digital work. I started really delving into Procreate when we went on Vacation earlier this year, and I haven’t stopped exploring the possibilities since. While planning for our vacation in late February and early March of his year I opted to take only my camera and iPad. No knitting, no sketch book, no art supplies. This was the first time I’d ever taken only my iPad, with the intent of creating art while on a vacation. I had a plan to limit my supplies and challenge myself to only using procreate. My plan worked, I learned a lot about procreate and I enjoyed to process. The biggest thing I learned was how very freeing being able to sit on the couch or the porch at night with just an iPad and a pencil was.

Hello Lovely. Here's hoping we both have a beautiful week this week. This weekend I did a bit of stitching to get my creative juices flowing again. We're starting the week with this Fall card. I found the leaf pattern on Pinterest and free handed the "Fall" letters. Let's get to the details.
I started with a kraft cardstock tag I cut using the My Favorite Things Die-namics Cross Stitch Scalloped tag die. I stitched the leaf and the word "Fall" using DMC size 5 thread in #922. To complete the tag I added a back with the same kraft cardstock and a bit of vintage seam binding tape for a bow.
I used my trusty Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles die to cut a panel from an older pad of My Mind's Eye pattern paper, which I added to a cream card base. I adhered the completed tag and added the "happy" to the tag with a bit of foam tape.
This was such a fun card to make. Thanks for swinging by today. Come back tomorrow for some more stitched goodness.
