  20. My sweetest friend, this is such a fun card. (And elegant, because you're amazing like that.) The color palette is divine and I love the combo of the polka dot paper with the dot embossing. The dimension of the fabulous sewing machine is gorgeous. And the buttons! There isn't a better accent choice for this theme than buttons. :o) Beautifully executed card as always, my dear Lisa. I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

    Hugs and blessings!

  29. Sew nice. I considered buying the Spellbinders Grand Calibur on Sun since JoAnns has it on sale for $89.99 reg price $139.99. Reason I did not buy is that I found out that the Spellbinders Grand Calibur does not seem to handle Sizzix die cuts as in the opening is not high enough for them to go thru. It is wider for the Grand Spellbinders. Other reason I did not buy is because the Grand Spellbinders are more costly than the regular. Other reason was that the JoAnns did not have any in stock and any one wanting one had to pay & special order and then they would let you know when it arrived at store.

  39. Lisa,

    It has been a while since I have been by to comment. I have spent most of my summer helping my parents out.
    I love the card you have here. Because I so enjoy sewing, it really caught my eye. Great idea with the embossing and I love the little stitch lines with the sentiment.
    I hope you and your family are doing well these days.
