House of Cards Challenge - September

Hello All
Thank you for popping by and if you're able to leave a comment, it is much appreciated as I know how busy all of our lives are in one way or another.
Thank you for your comments on my previous posts
Today's card is the one I have entered for September's House of Cards challenge - add stitching --real or faux. I have had a go at faux stitching before but wanted to have a go at the real thing! I used a project that I have had for years from a company called "Form-A-Lines" here . I loved doing it and will definitely try it again. The last couple of photos was my first attempt. I hadn't got any Sulky thread and thought I'd practice with embroidery cotton - BIG mistake, the poor lady looks like she's growing a beard!. I found some black Sulky thread in my stash and wanted to give it a go to see if I enjoyed doing this craft before I splashed out and bought more. Once I had finished it, it reminded me of the Ascot scene from "My Fair Lady" and the sentiment is a line from the song the Ascot Gavette "What a smashing, positively dashing Spectacle: the Ascot op'ning day" 

The glittered "dazzler" looks a bit misshapen but in real life it is a perfect circle
