ETA:
OK, I'm back! Sorry, It seemed like everything that could go wrong with making this card, did go wrong!! :) I found the design idea from here. When I saw her card it almost had the same colors, so I thought it would be perfect for this challenge! Her card is way better than mine, but hey, I tried! First of all I found a pear on my computer to print out and make a template from, then I realized, I had no black thread! So I ran to the Dollar Store down the road, because I live in a small town, and that is the biggest store we have! :) Just so you know, NEVER BUY THREAD FROM THE DOLLAR STORE!! It is a waste of time and money! But hey, I was desperate! Then I get home and see that the deadline is soon, I don't know what the time change is, but it was 7:00 p.m. here and the deadline was at 9:00 p.m.. I thought the deadline was tomorrow! Well I still had to thread a bobbin and needle, (which took FOREVER), then the thread kept breaking! So I just stitched it with no thread and used a black marker to make faux stitching. So don't look to close, I was in a hurry! Then when I tried to post it, it wouldn't work, so after the third time trying it finally worked. I want to make another card like this one, when I'm not in such a hurry! :) Well I hope ya'll like it!
Supplies:
Paper- My Mind's Eye- patterned paper, SU!- green cs, The Paper Company- black & cream cs
Ink- StazOn- jet black for Thickers
Accessories- Offray- cream satin ribbon, circle punch, pear printed from computer, stitching marks from sewing machine, black marker for faux stitching
Have a Blessed night!

What a fun card! Love the layout and all the details - very resourceful of you to get your pear from the computer!
Oh my goodness! This is so cute!!
The things we do to get our cards posted in time! Your card looks great -- love the pear and the large letters curving around it, the patterned paper, scallop-edged cardstock, and, yes, the stitching (wouldn't have known it was faux just by looking at my computer screen!).
I LOVE your card!!! The way you did the sentiment and that big pear are gorgeous. ;)
All your trouble was worth it - this is so cute! Great job, now you can relax!
