Challenge Time Again..

Well, Sunday has been and gone yet again and that means there is another High Hopes Weekly Challenge!

This week we are sewing on cards... Kelly, my sister (hey Kel!) fixed my sewing machine just after I made this card for my dad's birthday. The stitching was pulling a bit funny here and there... turns out I had the bobbin threaded in the wrong way... hey... simple mistake to make! It was sewing so I assumed it was right!! Now that it's all fixed I am going to work on sewing more... I might even work on sewing more layer than one! OOOOOooooo! As for the rest of Dad's card, the bows on Gavin the Givin' Dragon's pressies are stamped and watercoloured twice and raised as well as Gavin himself... it has a whole lot more dimension in real life... lets just hope it doesn't get ruined in the post!
BLOG CANDY ALERT!
Don't forget... there is blog candy flying everywhere every few days so don't forget to do the High Hopes Hop and find the sugary (or should I say, rubbery) goodies!

Great card Amy. I love the orange and red presents (don't see those two colors together like this very often). And funny but I love his bright white nails! Ha!
