Today, I used the background block found in the Quiet Essence set. I love it's soft, almost quilt-like feel & I thought it would be perfect to use on a baby card. My layout comes from this week's CPS sketch.
Here's a close-up of the stamped panel. I stitched a little trail for the butterfly with my sewing machine.
