Natalie's first ATC card!

Natalie is on "vacation" for a couple of nights so Mom & Dad can celebrate our 22nd anniversary. Yeah, yeah, it's not really a vacation when you're made to go! LOL! But she gets to go shopping at a huge outlet mall with Mammaw & her sister. I figure it's a fair trade off. She has money to spend & we have quiet time! LOL!

She wanted to finish her House Mouse challenge before she left. Most weeks she likes to look through the sketch challenges for ideas. This time she learned what an ATC card was & came up with her design right away without using any other ideas! Way to go Natalie! The challenge was to make an ATC card. She thought it would be fun to use this stamp and include stitching. So, when she was finished assembling the card, she practiced sewing on cardstock. She's sewn on fabric before, but it's different on cardstock. She wasn't liking how it went crooked, so took out a few stitches & started over. She went through my button stash & found these darling buttons from Papertrey Ink. She really wanted to use button brads I have (they are TINY) but in the midst of the crazy messy craft room I had no idea where to even point her.

Feel free to leave her some comments! And to pray that Mom can find a card she made awhile back for a friend that I have misplaced. YIKES!!!!

Thanks for hopping by!
