My "love" for Carolina

This month the Crafty Gals Blog Group is celebrating Carolina.  She has a very bright and cheerful style and often sews on her beautiful cards (I love that!).   Checkout her wonderful creations, here.   I couldn't unearth my sewing machine (or the table where I work to put the sewing machine upon) so I stamped the stitches (with an A*muse Studio boarder stamp).  The paper was from my "scrap" pile and the image came from a friend.   The image is colored with watercolor pencils.  The bling and flowers are also from my stash.

Here is my inspiration from Carolina (here):
Also in true Carolina Style, I rotated her layout and made my card horizontal instead of vertical.  Thanks for looking!!
