You've Got Me in Stitches

Hi Crafty Friends,
We have a fun new challenge on the Cut It Up Challenge Blog. Along with using a die cut, we are also using stitching (faux or real.)
My project is this adorable Tiger Lily Gift Bag.  The file was provided by our challenge sponsor, Fluerette Bloom.

I cut all the pieces on my Silhouette.  A little bit of rolling and inking was all that was needed to create this pretty flower with its leaves and bud.  I found the lily designer paper in my stash - love the colors!.  I used Jaded Blossom Rectangle dies 1 and 2 for the mats which provided the required stitching and also found the "stitched" ribbon in my stash.
Be sure to visit the Cut it Up Challenge blog to see more projects from Fluerette Bloom - she has some amazing cut files!!!!  And be sure to join us in the challenge for a chance to win a gift voucher to the Fluerette Bloom store.
