I like your added stitch lines along the quilt pieces. I've used the tutorial before, but haven't tried dressing it up like that. And the image is sweet, and beautifully coloured. It reminds me very much of a card that Faye (whose friend Melanie is) sent me a few years back.

Thanks for the link to the bg. Love stitching on cards, but not very successful. Will try this. Your card is darling with the sweet image, and the background is perfect for it. Nothing more comforting a good cup of tea and a warm quilt. TFS

Such an adorable card! I love your background, so creative to add the faux zigzag stitching!

This is such a fun looking card, image, background, sentiment! It will be worth the wait.
I'm going to try the tutorial, I did one long, long ago in purples, I like the stitching and will add that this time.
Thanks for sending a card all the way from Germany.
