Cross Stitch Thank You

Hi There!
 I have created a card to share perfect to thank a teacher with a home spun feel using a Cross Stitch stamp.
I took the Card Patterns sketch for the week and tweaked it slightly.
I shopped my stash with some fun papers I had been hoarding and that was the inspiration for this card.   This stamp coordinates nicely with the Spellbinders Labels 3. I love love love stamps and dies that coordinate nicely together. 
Some pearls and a button were added to the card for a finishing touch. 

As I mentioned, I liked the sketch at Card Patterns, so I found my inspiration for my card there.
Thanks for visiting me today! Hope you have a fantastic Friday!
~Tammy~

I adore the cross stitch idea. This card is so classic. I love the polka dot apple with a button too. Great combination of lace and doilies too.
