Bloomin' Wonderful

Hello!  I hope you are all having

 a bloomin' wonderful day!

Yesterday, I was all set to make a card--had my DP, embellies and sentiment out, and then, agh! none of the stamps I had seemed to go with what I had in mind.  I later thought of Amy Young's Darby & Bumbles images and just had to have it so I logged in to All That Scraps, ordered and downloaded the digital images and in seconds was all set to go again.   Aren't digitals wonderful!  

This turned into an easel card because the sentiment was large and Stampin' Up! Stitched Sweet Pea flowers were used (thanks again Brenda!) as it fit perfectly for the challenges with sewing themes.

 

 The challenges:

All That Scraps - Sewing on your project

Stamptacular Sunday Challenge - #56, Sew Special

Before I leave you, I just want to give a big thank you shout out to a dear blogging friend and creator of  these Sweet November stamps-- Amy Young!   I can't believe how lucky I was to have won her preview giveaway of her newest fairy, Clover Greenfield. Not only did I win this new stamp and a huge bunch of embellies , I also won Amy's handmade card--the most gorgeous card ever!!! Visit Amy's blog HERE for a better view of her card. I was so thrilled to have won an Amy original, I was doing cartwheels!!! Thank you Amy, I look at your card every day and am mesmerized by Clover's beauty!  I hope to ink her up soon.
