I wanted to also use my new Paper Smooches sentiment stamp set here. I am in LOVE with this set!! You will be seeing more of this for sure! Please don't peek too close as I did a bit of sewing on this to shabby it up a little. I say this as I had a very brief inservice during my Stamping Away weekend on how to sew using an ancient sewing machine I picked up for cheap. So this was my first attempt on a card! Yay! Thanks Jen and Eva for being patient with me and showing me a few things!
Here's this week's inspiration photo and color scheme from CR84FN! Thanks for stopping by today!
