I'm back with another project for Concord & 9th's January Release and today's post features the Stitch of Love Piercing Dies. If you know me, you know I love stitching on cards, as well as the embroidery arts. This was my first opportunity to use a product from Concord & 9th's Piercing Dies Collection and it was so much fun!

In my Fun Facts, I listed a six-colour palette that is fully utilized on this card: Carnation, Briar Rose and Plumberry, Nectar, Clementine and Cayenne. I chose Carnation for my card base so I cut the smallest of the hearts in this set from each of the other five colours. Then I created a layout and rotated both the patterns and the colours in a pattern.
I used the Gold Thread on the Nectar hearts and the needle that came with the thread. I was pleasantly surprised at how well the needle paired with the pierced holes on the dies. I popped up the stitched hearts on foam squares and used glue dots to adhere the rest of the hearts, using a T-ruler to ensure perfect alignment. Finally, I stamped the sentiment from the Love Games Stamp Set using Plumberry ink.
I hope you enjoyed today's project. If you missed my previous posts, you can find those here:
