Oh man, I did it again, 4 hours of sleep for me again. I am gonna die of sleep deprivation. No patients tomorrow and a four hour day though, I can do it. This was SUCH a fun challenge for me and unlike my last card it came together the first time. I thought I had completely lost my ability to STAMP yesterday!!!!! But tonite, not too shabby. I love these girls, and it was fun to paper piece their dresses. I almost never reach for dp, so that was fun too! ;) My trusty golden is snoring about an 8 on the richter scale by my side here, so we are off to bed! Night all! (or should I say MORNING ALL???) TGIF!!!!!!!!!!!

That is so warm and fuzzy looking. You did a superb job of the paper piecing, both selection and execution. And now your scolding, GET SOME SLEEP. Sleep deprivation is so bad for you, it is an underlying cause of so many health problems. I am so lucky in that area, I can go to bed anytime after 10;00 and exactly 8 hours later I wake up. My husband hates me, he says sometimes he sees me sound asleep and he is so jealous he feels like sabotaging my sleep.

Wow! This card rocks my socks off! How did you do that gorgeous double ribbon??? And the coloring on those cute little girls is incredible. Did you really do all that "stiching" with paper piercing and a white gel pen? If you did, I stand in awe. And if it was a real sewing machine, the same. I can't tell the difference! GORGEOUS GORGEOUS
