Hello everyone!!! This was a fun challenge, Julia...since I couldn't find any patchwork stamps, I created a patchwork background and added faux stitching...I shoulda just pulled out the sewing machine because this took quite a while to complete!!! The JustRite Christmas Treasures image was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with copics. Flower soft and glitter were added for a little glam. The corners with silver pearls, ribbon, and button with silver cording finish it off. TFL!!
