Since I recently did a card using this exact cut, I decided instead to use the apron on the new Country Life cartridge (it is my new favorite by the way!...cute, cute images all of them!). I also used the new Kitschy Kitchen 6 x 6 patterned papers from Melissa Frances to complete this card.

This is a cute card, I have been looking at Country Life but am still on the fence. My favorite cart is Lacey Labels at the moment.
Right now my favorite cart is Summer in Paris, but once my French Manor cart gets here, I am sure it will be my new favorite!
Great card! I love the DT paper that you use!

Beth this is great. I feel like I learn something from you every single week. I love the doily behind the apron, it looks like lace at the bottom edge of the skirt. Your embellishment is fabulous - so much detail on that one little piece!
Fabulous!

Hi there, Beth! How are you girl? Before I say anything about your cutie patootie card, I MUST say how much I adore you. You leave the sweetness, most funny comments on my blog that just lift my heart every time. I'm always so happy to see that you've stopped by and can't wait to read what you wrote. You ALWAYS make me laugh out loud. And for that, I thank YOU!
And now that I'm done raving ;)I have to say how adorable your card is! I love that paper pieced apron and love those sweet papers. I hadn't seen that MF line before. Yum! Love your ribbon and bow tied with that pin and button and adore the doily behind the apron.
Hope you have a wonderful day!
Your project is adorable. For me, the doily makes the card. My favorite cartridge to date is Create-a-Critter. I just love the darling images. Thanks for sharing and the opportunity to win.
