Design Team Day with Meljen's Designs

Good morning!
It's my turn to share
a little Meljen's inspiration with you.

I decided to share one of my favorite 
ways to embellish cards.
It's quick, easy and (dare I say) Cheap!


I add machine stitching to many of my projects.
If you don't own a sewing machine there
are many ways to achieve the same look.
You can draw stitched borders or hand stitch
a fun border.  The possibilities are endless!

The enamel dots were created "from scratch"
by melting Ponybeads and Perlerbeads.
You can find a quick tutorial HERE.

You can find this adorable "Little Sock Monkey"
in the Meljen's Designs shop.

The coordinating digital sentiment is

I hope you are inspired to color your favorite
Meljen's Designs digital image and give this
technique a try.

You still have time to join this week's 
Why not add a little stitching as well?
Have a great week!
I'm also entering my card in the following:

Love your sock monkey card - I sometimes stitch, but more often faux stitch or doodle now.

Oh, my, Cynthia, I abhor sock monkeys! They give me the willies, and I don't know why. But your card is just darling! Love your CAS design, and the monkey is cute as it can be, (for a sock monkey, lol!) :^):
Hugs, Penny
