and guess what...I've finally got out my new sewing machine that I had back in February and not used until now...yay!!! it's taken me a while but got there eventually, mind you it took me longer to thread the blooming needle than what it did to make this card....lol!!!
I've used lots of new things on this card, the image for one and it's been coloured in again with Copics, the scrummy BG "wisteria" papers have been slightly distressed and edges inked with distress inks, Prima flowers, Autumn Leaves "ticketed" sentiment stamps, spacers and charm from The Hobby House as is the scallop corner punch, dew drops were from the very lovely Michelle, who sent me a wonderful surprise bundle of fabby goodies this week, which I wasn't expecting and really made my day, thanks so much Michelle. Then of course it's the zig-zag stitching around the papers. I really enjoyed making this card, dispite how long it took me to thread the needle.......lol!!

This is gorgeous Vicki! I love your stitching and your colouring is great.
I've come to the conclusion that everyone has a particular set of 'their' colours that they ALWAYS make fabulous cards from. In your case, your blue and brown cards are always my faves! ~♥~
Wow Vicki, She is gorgeous. Sue x
