Cricut Cardz Challenge #102 - A Stitch In Time

This week's Cricut Cardz Challenge over at www.cardztv.blogspot.com is to make a card using any cartridge and any colors using stitching on your card.  It can be real stitching or faux stitching.  I used both on my card.  I used the Cricut cartridge Lovely Floral, MME Fine and Dandy girl paper pad, Fiskars scallop border punch, Star Dust Stickles and some jewel brads. Hope you can join us for this week's challenge.  For more inspiration check out my fellow designers' cards as well.  Can't wait to see what you "stitch" up.  Thanks for visiting me! :)

My sister's 39ths birthday was on 1/31, and this is the card that I made for her.  I was so very blessed to have been there on her birthday to give her card to her in person.  My daughter went out to see her and her family for a few days.  She lives about 6 hours away. :( Had such a good time!! I miss them already!! 

For this card I used Crafter's Companion S.w.a.l.k. Time Out stamp, Heidi Grace BGirl Flourish cardstock, Spellbinders Lacey Squares die (my very first Spellbinders) and Prima Flower.  I also used some Stickles on the bubbles although it is hard to tell in the picture.  Thanks for visiting me!! :)
