Having you as a friend is SEW nice!



Welcome!   It is a gorgeous day in Northern California!   
I hope to have lunch on the patio today!   
I need to enjoy before the hot, hot, hot weather sets in!    

I am sharing a card I created for our new challenge at Totally Gorjuss!   
Our challenge is to include some type of stitching, Regular or faux.   

I am using doe fabulous paper from Paper Temptress!   Isn't it gorgeous? 
You have to see the paper to believe it!   :D 


I used this adorable image by Sherri Baldy called Betsy Buttons (My Besties) 
Isn't she adorable?   And to go with  the sewing theme, 
I created french knots!    I also added buttons and bows with Baker Twine!
