Hi Melissa! what an adorable card you created for this week's challenge! I love the quilted background and the paper piercing adds so much detail. Love that cute stamp for the sentiment, and the punched corners are really cool.

Great card, Melissa! I love that layout and your color combo. I really love those 2 ribbons together - yumm-o! :)

Such a simply LO with stunning results! The way you intrepreted the colors from the inspiraion photo are yummy and the feel of the card hits the 'comforts of home' theme perfectly! Great job with your design this week, dear Melissa :)
