Thought I would try the tutorial from the newsletter to-day. I really love this technique and was very happy with the results. Thank you Dini for a great tutorial. I stamped the flower on the back of the watercolour paper and pierced the image with a fine beading needle. I chose a fine needle because it gave a more delicate look to the delicate stamp I used. I used my watercolours to fill in the flower. If anyone wants to know the colours just PM me. It looked a little plain on the kraft so I used a cuttlebug folder for a little more interest. In keeping with my New Years Resolution I used very old watercolour paper and paints. I think I bought the stamp in 2006/7 at a stamp show but hardly ever used it...I just really liked it. LOL The sentiment is from Stampendous.

Sue, your card is just beautiful! You did a super job with this technique and your coloring on the flowers is so pretty. The framing makes it look like a piece of art!
