Q is for Quilting

I was blown away when Samantha from the ABC Christmas challenge blog asked if I would like to do a GDT spot this week since I haven't missed one of their challenges for nearly 2 years now.  The challenge for this fortnight is 'Q is for Quilting' and so they want to see lots of patchwork backgrounds on your cards.  I made my background out of scraps of paper, pieced together, embossed, distressed and with some faux stitching.  It is one of my favourite techniques, but does take a while to do!  I thought this image was very apt for the challenge too- Popcorn snuggled up in a quilt.
And matching tag:
There are some fab prizes, as always, from this weeks sponsors:

Good luck!
