Hello Friends, and Happy Thursday! I won't keep you but a sec with this little card I'm adding to the notecard set I'm working on.
Check out that stitched border. I finally used the sculputure stitch successfully on my sewing machine! Remember, back in November it got a little wonky on me. :)
The little orange sparkly dots are Stickles. I can't say too many times: I Love Stickles! Well, I really wanted to put them all over that blue lattice border, too, but I refrained, instead just putting teeny tiny dots on the points of the sentiment layer die cut.
I'm really enjoying the CR84FN45 colors and the Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge #149 was wonderful as the layout. It was perfect for making this card flat for mailing, and also so it would fit in the dvd tin when it's all finished. I think I'll be able to get two flat cards, two dimensional cards, and the envelopes in the tin without squishing anything too much.
Thanks for visiting, and have a super day!

Beautiful card Cheryl! Love that fancy die cut showcasing the sentiment and the lattice border looks fab! Thanks so much for joining along with CR84FN :)
I love these colors and how you're incorporating them into your set. Very warm and rich and earthy. Colorful without being over-bright. I'm such a fan of Stickles, too. You never have to worry about them brushing off. And so many fabulous colors! You did an amazingly perfect job on your Stickles dots!
And your card makes me smile! Very pretty.
