Thank you card

I got a new set, You're Dandy,  from Practicing Creativity recently and finally made something with it.   I love the clouds and the kite and the rays in this set.  It's what sold me on it.  I could not stop thinking about those clouds and those rays and that kite! LOL   Now, I keep thinking of hot air balloons...

This card turned out a bit different than I planned, but isn't that always the case?  I didn't mean to stitch it to death and had planned on having more dimension but I accidentally sewed the blue panel to the card base and couldn't pull it up without ripping it...grrrrr...so I just went with it.  Pattern paper is from Cosmo Cricket, I'm pretty sure it is.  Harriet gave it to me so I'm not sure of the line it came from.

Oh, and if you don't already know this, Embellish Magazine has debuted and it's fabulous!  Embellish is an online publication and it is VERY well done!  I knew it would be fabulous but it exceeded my expectations.

Check back tomorrow for the latest Sketch Girl challenge!

  12. LOL@ stitching it to death. I love all the stitching, I think it adds so much fun to a card like this. I love the blue sky panel, and the little "grassy" hill. that kite image has tons of possibilities!!!
