Another Competition Entry

This was my entry into the cardmaker of the Year Competition for the Madiera Category. Have you ever made a card that you don't want to part with? This is one of those - I loved making it and was really pleased with the outcome. I used Personal Impressions stamp and embroidered on the flowers on the machine.  I also ripped a piece from the corner and laced it up with thread. The papers are Bo Bunny Jasmine range.
