I recently made a baby quilt for my friend's little one in these colors and appliqued it on my embroidery machine with a cute bee. I tried to make the card match as much as possible and I think I succeeded pretty well. The bee is almost a perfect match (without the smile). I love being "matchy matchy" with my cards and gifts and I can usually find something in my stash to pull it all together.

What a sweet, sunny and happy card. Way to go with the matching hexagon lining in the envelope, Nancy! I'm sure that the quilt and card will both be treasured.

How cool that you coordinated not only your envelope but your card was designed to match your gift. Now I think we all want to see the quilt!! Adorable card!
