Lovely card, love these stamps, well done. I am no expert on the sewing machine so I generally hand stitch but my Mum said you might need to adjust the tension? Take care, love Jane x

A lovely card Nic, I'm being really tempted by these new Sugar Nellie stamps. PS I'd set the machine to a much longer stitch.
