CASE Study Challenge #63

We are launching our last challenge with Niki Estes, at CASE Study. I had so much fun this month, and would easily do a couple more! It's so cool to "legally" CASE some of the most inspiring ladies out there! Here's the card for this week...

Again, I picked one of my favourites from Niki. It's one of the most gorgeous examples of stamping that I've seen. I love custom stamped papers, and if paired with flawless sponging and fun embossing, my heart is set a flutter...
I knew that I wanted to pull out the same stamp set, for my inspired card. I changed the layout and colours, but I stayed true to the idea. I only forgot about sponging - I realized that I skipped that part, after I sew the layer to the mat. Ugh.

Supplies: cardstock: SU! (retired colour), American Crafts (grey), embossed white (stash); paper: Pink Paislee (365 Degrees); stamps: PTI (Year Of Flowers: Roses); ink: Versafine (Onyx Black), PTI (Fresh Snow); Y04 Copic; Nestabilities Labels 10; sewing machine; ribbon: PTI; MFT Die-Namics File Tab

I paired Card Patterns sketch 138, with the colours of CR84FN41:
