Labor Day is now behind us and I must say it was the quietest one ever! I hope every one had a fun and safe long weekend. I did manage to get just a little crafting done, but spent some time getting my hubby out of the house for a while too!

I used and meandering stitch around my panels to kind of go with the flow of the dp.
Here is a closer view of Singing Tilda...
On the inside of the card, the beauty of the paper is left open and simply tied with ribbon with a few pearls for accent. While I used the Lattice Deep edge punch to accent my notation side.
I added my signature to the back on my card using my little heart on a ribbon peg stamp by Judith. The Made with Love portion is from The Cutting Cafe

Hello Barb. Had you put her with blond hair, she would have reminded me of this great actress that once sang this song to a president... But, she has absolutly perfect black hair, OH! I wish I could take lessons from you... Background paper is so chic and delicate. It's a beauty.
