Mark's Finest 

Here is my card using this set. I made a telescoping card. I added stitching to add interest. The butterfly was done using the set called DAFFODIL GREETINGS. I used Burned Aleene's Tacky Glue technique to make center of flowers. The centers kinda look like raisins to me.

 Another card I made using same butterfly and poppies. A RED WHITE AND BLUE card.

We learned  this worship song in church this week, and I have enjoyed listening to it all day as I got this post ready. I thought I would share it with you.



 I am entering the telescoping card into The Sisterhood of Crafters for their going in circles challenge.
I am also entering these poppy cards in the Lollipop Crafts Challenge #83 flowers in bloom.
I am also entering the RED WHITE and BLUE poppy card in the Paper Pretties Red, white and blue challenge PPMC44 
 All three of my cards have stitching and I'm entering them in The Cutie Pie Challenge to use real or faux stitching on a card.
