I really must pluck up courage to use a sewing machine, this card took ages just because I hand stitched all the mats. The reason for the stitching its the challenge today over on Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge and we also welcome the two Vickys as permanent members of the DT.
Do go and check DT's creations, some of them are much braver than I actually used a machine.
So I've got my money, my list and the tickets, so what are the odds that I bring home stuff not on my list!

Beautiful card Debby! I love these gorgeous papers you've used! I have got a sewing machine but to be honest very rarely use it! It is a lot easier than hand sewing all your layers though! Lol!
Have a great weekend!
Hugs, Vicky ~X~

wow Debby this is a real labour of love cannot believe you had the dedication and patience to handstich this card..but wow isnt it stunning and to me it makes it a real treasure..handcrafted and handstitched it truly is a one of a kind item to treasure forever..
P.s Debby your card just reminded me of a time when i was at a car boot sale and on the stall ahead of i saw one of those little sewing machines..it was used but still had its box and all the bits.anyways i was just about to enquire "how much" when this woman barged past grabbed it(literaly) and you know how much she snapped it up for..£1.50 i was mortified..lol i could not believe it...i was so sick as a parrot lol but my 17 year old daughter thaought it was so funny..

WOW - this card is so beautiful. Great spring colors Debby!
THis is adorable. I have this stamp and you just inspired me to dig her out and dust her off. Love it.. and don't worry Deb, I haven't used a sewing machine either..love the effect, but don't feel like dragging it out for a card..
Beautiful Debby! Your 3D work looks stunning on this stamp for sure!!!! Love it!
Hugs, Dena
Wow! What can I say -this is so stunning card! I love everything in this, layout, colours, decoration, lace, all perfect!

Lovely card, such a cute image. Hope you had fun at Farnborough.... Ouch on your purse xx
Gorgeous Debby, this is one of my all time fav stamps, I really can't believe you have handstitched all this, reminds me of the Elves and the Shoemaker story by the Brothers Grim, your work is so beautiful, do you leave it all cut out over night and then those little elves come and stitch together your lovely work? ha ha Happy crafting, (bet your fingers were sore after that), Sue xx
Hi Debby
Sorry about things on the cute and girly challenge, it all got too much, so glad you desided to stay with it.
As always another really wonderful card, the lace is beautiful and your stitching looks super. I too desided to taken the demon sewing machine, it's only practise and the effect is great.

Debbie this is so adorable. Love your layout and stitching and lace. I love how you cut out your images and how you "round" them to give them dimension. Have you thought of doing a tutorial on this method?
Everytime I check your blog I am mystified as to how you get the 3=d look to your cards. Part of the image looks like it's on paper but then it looks like you've cut out part of it. How do you do this? You cards are absolutely gorgeous!
This is so pretty! Do give the sewing machine a go, it's not that scary - promise LOL :)
Hope you enjoyed Make It, I went yesterday and enjoyed myself, bought some Bazzill Bling and Basics at a good price. Not my favourite show though, the noise from the tent was dreadful
ooo this is gorgeous sweetie, wonderful papers, image and embellies :), love it
