Congrats card for some new parents, using a template I made from a die cut, scanned and minimized. The sentiment is from Michael's Dollar bin and is so sweet. The inside sentiment reads 'Congratulations on your swell news'.
Still playing around with my sewing machine and trying to figure out what it can do, I may be addicted... (thanks to Kokirose!)
Thanks for looking!

Very pretty mommy card. It's just so sweet and love the calligraphy of the sentiment. Awesome sewing too, I'm kind of sort of jealous about that. LOL Kidding, but I do think you are getting to good at this at a too fast rate. LOL

OOOOHHHH, I want my sewing machine back!!! I loaned it to my SIL decades ago and never asked for it back. Now, I'd be embarrassed to ask for it back, plus I'd want a new one with all the neat features. I'm hooked on everyone's cards with stitching and I LOVE what you've done here. Your cards would look good with or without stitching, but I know what you mean, once you start, that's it!!! What a cool image and sentiment and I love the papers and colors you used. Fantastic job Pat!! TFS!!!
