Lori's challenge....use wheat on our cards. Die cutting the wheat...sponged with inks. Embossed the card front using dies. Cut out the sentiment panel and wrote the sentiment with gold ink. Adhered the wheat dies with glue dots, and sewed them too. TFL

Ummmm.....this is g O r G e O u s.
I was just looking up how possibly to achieve that modern calligraphy look -- you did it with a dip pen? I will have to try this. Love it so much; great job.

Oh dear...another gorgeous card. I meant to write earlier in the week to see if you could slacken off a bit...I have the letter H in Favs of the Week this coming weekend. All jokes aside, Linda this is so beautiful and your calligraphy is perfection on paper.
