Super card Heather! It's ages since I made a bargello background - love the papers you used and such a sweet image as well.

Lovely card Heather, and what a great technique, I haven't heard of a Bargello Background before, once I have a little extra time I must give it a ago. Love the colours you used very pretty and this is such a sweet Bugaboo image. Thanks so much for sharing your talent with us over at Sweet Sketch Wednesday 2 and good luck.

One year (she says hopefully) I WILL be organized and Christmas won't be such the panic fest that it's become in recent years. Your lovely card is an inspiration to me to get my act together and finish up my cards for the season. I love that darling image and your background is fantastic.
