Card Pattern Sketch #106





I was blog-surfing for a sketch because my crafty mojo has gone away - how sad :o(

The Design Team is so talented and inspirational. Check out my sweet blog buddy Amy Tsuruta at: http://tsurutadesigns.blogspot.com/ ~~ I didn't need to look any further.

This card is for my cousin and his wife who just had their first baby.
I stamped the carriage on two different patterns and cut them out to paper piece it.
Thought this came out pretty cute?
