CC408 So Cherished

Photo Details

Poster: peeps321

Fabulous colors for today!!! This isn't a typical Valentine image but I think I may use the card for Valentine's Day. I'm using new stamps I got for Christmas. The dress and blossoms are paper pieced. I decided to photograph this with the top of a pink Wedgwood box that I have as I thought it went well with the card and colors.Thanks for taking a look!

Polly, this is dreamy! LOVE the colors and antique look with the GORGEOUS images(Santa was good to you). Love the touch of doily/lace and the curvy machine stitching to add a border. FABULOUS card! (Your Wedgewood box is beautiful too)

What fantastic new stamps!!! Your little young lady in her paper pieced dress is adorable!!! I LOVE all the dimension in your flowers and how pretty they look! The bit of doily, your distressing and your wavy sewing are ALL fabulous additions and really add so much to the vintage feel! Love it all!!!
