Hi Linda, your card is beautiful, truly beautiful. Your comment you left today on my tea post made me so happy, it was the best compliment, because you said it made you feel warm and happy. I am not deliberately trying to do that, but I visit this blog, soulaperture, you may know it...well Christina, she is amazing, always makes me feel good........ you know , warm, calm, serene, like the world is a good and beautiful place. I would just love it if my blog could make people go away feeling like that after they have visited. Ha a therapeutic blog...most people want an exciting, inspiring blog. Maybe a bit of everything would be perfect. Now I am rambling. Enjoy that precious, new bundle of creation that is in your life.

Not sure my first comment went through, Linda, so I'm saying it again. Just delete me if this is a repeat. :) I was saying how I loved your card with the fun gate-fold opening. It's such a great design, and yet I never think of using it when I'm crafting. Love the neutral color palette and love that vintage image. And all your stitching and scallops are fabulous. :)
