I thought I'd use one of the lovely Hobby House Toppers that I bought recently... this is an Elisabeth Bell Pre-Coloured Topper and the little girl is sewing which is perfect for our theme!
The bobbin paper was a freebie with a magazine.... and the gorgeous flower paper was a Birthday gift a while back from Hazel.... I knew straight away it would be perfect with this image. Love the colours and think the card has a slight retro feel to it.
Pre-Coloured Topper: Hobby House - Elisabeth Bell - 'Strawberry Tea'

Pink Bobbin Paper, Sentiment and Reel - 'Aspire Sew Pretty' set freebie in Papercraft Essentials magazine.

Gosh... this week is going by SO quickly... I think it's because of the Bank Holiday... it really shortens the week... and can't believe it is nearly weekend again! I love Wednesdays and Thursdays at the moment... as really enjoying the Bake Off and Who Do You Think You Are... and just saw a trailer for a new programme beginning soon on BBC called Our Zoo... it's a period drama based on the man who created Chester Zoo... so think it will be worth a look !!
Hope you enjoy the rest of the week!
Take Care
Love and hugs

How fun that you got the image to tie into the theme as well as using stitched elements! The little scissors and patterned paper are perfect for this challenge. And I love the hint of gingham in the ribbon....I love gingham x Jessie
