Lots of stitching on here and I gave the kraft tabs some dimension and depth by popping them up on foam. To keep them from bowing I scored them flush with the edge and 1/8" more. That allowed me to have them lay flat and then fold around to the back with a nice flat edge. It looks pretty cool and I hope you can see what I'm talking about easily in the photo below.

Your card is beautiful. I really like the colours.
I am going to have to try my hand at stitching on my cards. Yours looks flawless.
This is precious, Tracy! LOVE all those neutral tones with the pops of blue, and girl, you sure think of all the details, especially the way you've wrapped those stitched tabs on this number! Brilliant!

Great card, Tracy! Love how you worked that tab around the corner with your scoring skills.
The tag & tabs are a great touch too.
Don'tcha just love Paulette's sentiments (I used to be on her DT). She's so very generous.
Until next time..........
