Here is a card I made for my BF'S sister. Diane is the oldest of the two, so I thought this image from Helen (misshelenstamps) was just right for the occasion. Love this image. I watercolored it and added a few dabs of ink here and there. I also used Lim's card as inspiration, she has a special way with Magnolia images:

Well what a card this is! You've used a beautiful image from Helen and flower soft from Sabrina. How great is that? Peggy, your coloring is beyond over the top: it's just gorgeous. Love the papers, too. Girl, this is one pretty card.

Peggy~ I am so impressed by your coloring such fine details! The image is lovely and Flower Soft is so perfect to use on this image too. Your cards always have a softness about them- the MS edge punch and folded doily are just beautiful. Very touching card sis. LYMI

This is so beautiful! I always love cards with 2 sisters on it since I just have one sister. The doily on there really makes it even more feminine and you did a great job with the FlowerSoft! LOVE IT!
