Ahhh...a long three day weekend :) I hope you have Monday off like I do! I spent some time today stamping and ended up finishing a couple of thank you cards I needed to get to. I'm sharing one today:
My layout came from Mercy's Tuesday Sketch Challenge (MTSC41):
The sponged ink and the stamped plants make this eligible for Sharon Johnson's Stamp Simply challenge (ssnotime106) from two weeks ago! Yep...I'm a little behind with my challenges...but working hard to get back on track! **Update 10.15.09: I meant to post that this card also qualifies for the Crazy 4 Challenges...uhh, challenge (C4C6), to create a card with a thankful theme!
I have to say this card took FOREVER to finish! Mainly because of my own indecisiveness but also because of the stitching. I finished my panels a while ago and set it aside to await my hand stitching, where it waited, and waited....and waited. Then finally today I stitched her up!
Thanks for swinging by today! Hope you've had a chance to join Just Us Girls already ;)

OOOOOHHHHH Kristin! I ♥ this! WOWEEE girl -- the colors are so rich - and the stitching...I REALLY need to get friendly with my machine ;). Beautifully done Kristin!!
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I love the colors you've used here!
What an elegant card! And again - faux stitching. I've gotten to the point that I think you should have to have a HUGE disclaimer at the top of your blog - NO SEWING MACHINE WAS USED IN THE CREATION OF THIS PROJECT!
Thanks for the inspiration - sincerely love it!
What a beautiful card! I love the sponging on this card. It really gives a soft, feminine look to those lil' posies! :)
