Hi everyone!!!
Just look at the sweet card Michele Ferguson has up at the Muse Challenge Blog!!!! How could I not want to play along!!!!!
Michele's pocket full of hearts brought a song to my mind!!! This is what I was inspired to make:
...catch a falling star and put it in your pocket....
...never let it fade away...
...catch a falling star and put it in your pocket....
.....save it for a rainy day....
This song comes from some time before I was around, but I know it as it is a favorite of my mom!!!
Done some sponging with DIs.
Stars cut with PTI and MFT dies.
So happy that I could work out a way to add stitching lines to my panels, using my MFT Notebook Edge Die!!!
The die cut word was a gift from a friend!!!
Thanks so much for popping in - your visits and comments are always appreciated!!!
Have a wonderful Sunday!!!

Such a pretty card Petra! Love the mysterious background and sweet poem! Thanks for sharing :)
Gorgeous card, Petra! Your background is fabulous and I love how you were inspired by Michele's Muse card. Now I've got that song in my head (which is a bit before my time as well) :)
Great, now that song is in my brain, and I'll be singing it all night! Oh well, I always loved to hear Perry Como sing it :-}. You've represented it perfectly with this lovely card. Love the background, the falling stars, and especially the tiny vellum pocket. Very clever interpretation with the heart inspiration, and you did a fab look. As always! TFS & have a great week
Hello, Petra! I LOVE your card and the cute little pocket with all of the stars! I remember this song too! Your DI background is gorgeous! Beautiful way to make the sentiment! I love this card!
Oh Petra, it was one of my Mum's favorite songs, too - I know it well! You perfectly tuned your card for these fabulous words ... glad you caught that 'pocketful' of love in my blog. and so happy to have you join in this, my final week, at Muse. I'm so sad about it!
