So...I Sewed!!!

That's right after looking at everyone's gorgeous stitched cards I finally worked up the courage to sew on my own card!!  And you know what??  It was SO easy!!!  I'm sure you'll be seeing lots of stitching on my cards from now on!!  One of my close college friends just had her first baby, so I wanted to make her a card using Proud Mama from Whimsy Stamps.  And incidentally today is her birthday, so Happy Birthday to Mama Missy!!!
I used a mixture of basic grey and SU papers for this one.  I also used bunches of assorted flowers and pearls.  I added my favorite yummy ribbon from SU.  Then stitched the edges!!!  Proud mama is cut out and popped up on dimensionals.  The sentiment comes with the proud mama set, so that worked out perfectly!
Have a great day, I'll be outside enjoying this sunny weather!!! YAY!
