Crafty Catz DT - Stitching: Real or Faux

Morning all! Another week almost over. Where does the time go?!
 
Well, Friday only means one thing and that's a new challenge at Crafty Catz. Our theme for this week which is Stitching it can be real or faux it doesn't matter which!  We are sponsored this week by Stamping Boutique who are offering our prize winner 3 digi stamps of their choice
 
My card this week is for a friend of mine who grows the most amazing moustaches! He's only in his early 20's (makes me feel old) but he's a total character. Anyway, I found a card on Pinterest from a French Blog and I took inspiration to create this:
 
So I stitched a black border and then cut the moustache out by hand. Found a bow template online and an old black coat button. I glossed the moustache with glossy accents and raised it on foam pads. Mounted the whole lot onto black card and then base card and there we have it.
 
Hope you like it - I know he does (like most men I know, he has no patience and opened it days before his actual birthday! lol!)
 
Anyway, swing by the blog to see the rest of the teams amazing creations. Until next time though, happy crafting!
