I made this for DTGD09cindy_haffner sketch. Great sketch to work with! I also used the flower from One of a Kind to paper tole for DTGD09blondie090277 challenge. I added Swissdots onto the bottom layer of my flower and distressed my four little squares for added texture for DTGD09DeborahLynneS Taken with Texture challenge. My sewing machine is not functioning properly. So I attempted using it... It was a mess and time-consuming... so now I am also including the DTGD09BevMom Sew Unexpected challenge. I hadn't used my sewing machine in over 6 months, because it was having attitude. Now I dare not venture back to it! You may notice the left side of my card is missing thread in the holes... TFL!

This is gorgeous! I love all the layers, the beautiful papers and fun color combo you chose! Kudos to you for persevering and triumphing over that finicky sewing machine! I think the tension is messed up on mine too...needs to go to the shop for a tune-up!

Beautiful! Your sewing looks great ( sorry you had issues) the colors are springy and pretty. Great job with the center piece and your tole! Just a beautiful card!

I love all the elements of this card! Great papers, love your paper toile, and wonderful embellishments! Even with the missing threads, the sewing looks great and the distressing and texture give it fabulous depth! So many aspects are fabulous that I really don't think I can comment on them all! So I'll just say "Awesome card!"
