A Stitch In Time

Hi Crafters,

I'm back this morning with another card that has been created using a popular theme...

SEWING

I've used lots of elements and papers that I had in an old kit from Create and Craft. The little cotton reels were a bargain from the N.E.C. show a few years ago and I wrapped coordinating cotton around them and thought that these charms fitted in beautifully with the rest of the theme.

The two tags are stuck together but actually pull out of the pocket behind the central image and have a birthday sentiment stamped on them, perhaps I should have taken a photo of that too but it's too late now as this has already gone to it's owner.

Challenges I'd like to enter:

The Ribbon Girl - June Card Challenge 

Come & Get It - #220 ATG

Creative Moments - #119 ATG / Birthday

Well after yesterdays rain I'm hoping for something a little drier today. It doesn't help my mood or creative juices when the weather is so dismal.
