Live the life you have imagined.

Today's card was inspired by one of 'my' students.  Every year there are one or two that just leave a mark on my heart. 
The card base is a 4.25" square of Papertrey white.  The sentiment is from an old DCWV vellum quote book and I layered it onto a piece of soft sky cardstock.  I used my sewing machine and stitched the two together, then distressed the edges of both.  The patterned papers are from Basic Grey's Periphery collection, the dew drops are from Robin's Nest's water collection and the flowers are by Prima.  Check out the luscious ribbon!  I love this ribbon and it's by May Arts.  My Sew Mini is defective - the tension isn't ever right.  I have decades of experience with "real" sewing machines so I'm aware I should have sent this mini back.  However, I kind of like the randomness of the stitches and I'd never be able to achieve this on purpose.  And so the defective mini stays.

Until next time...M
