When I first saw stitching in this week's MIM title I thought, "Well, I'm gonna sit this one out." I don't sew. This is different though. No machine involved! I stamped the banner string in Berry Sorbet ink, poked some holes, and used Heather's back stitch. It was so easy and it guarantees you end up with your floss on the back side of your project!

The banner string looks so cool backstitched - the texture is great.
So cute! I don't sew either but I may have to try this now.
Super cute! I love your sweet little banner. And I feel the same way about my sewing machine as you seem to. I'd much rather hand stitch any day of the week. Thank you for sharing your beautiful card, Kara!
Just lovely. The stitching is perfect. Love your card!
Fun banner.
