A Spirelli Thanks A Latte

A new fun technique, Spirelli,
well, not new,
but a new one for me!
So easy too!


I used a metallic gold thread that I have had forever.
Hope somebody still carries it, I may run out now that I see how fun this is.
And note to self, "order some more circle nesties".

The following challenges inspired this card:
365 Cards, Day 267 - fun with a food pun

One Crazy Stamper - food and drink challenge

Happy Belated Thanksgiving to all and to all a Goodnight!

WOW! A new technique and a fabulous card!! Love the Spirelli and perfectly frames the image. The layout is awesome too! And is that real sewing I see?!? That's a double "WOW!" So absolutely fabulous and it may have taken you three days to get it done but it's done so well!
Thanks for playing in the 365 Cards challenge!

Love your spirelli! So fab, it's nice to try something new sometimes. I love your card, the colours are just lovely. As for the gold thread, if you struggle finding any more (am sure you won't) go to anywhere that sells embroidery/cross stitch threads. I have my metallic thread from my days as a cross stitcher. Thanks so much for playing along with Sweet Stampin x
