Been trying to get this done all week, and now, FINALLY - here is my card for Wendy's teaparty - she has not gotten good news from her doctor so we are sending her cards to bring her a smile - see her story HERE
I stamped the BG with the splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge, then the flower stem - added some lines to define the stem and leaves. Stamped the flowers and after coloring, fussy cut and used my stylus on the back to define them. Next popped the petals up with dimensional and added stickles to the centers.
Stamped the sentiment, then edged with a marker and sponged in from there, and dotted with stickles.
Thanks for looking, sorry I am late, but will get this in tomorrow's mail!!

Oh, Sue, this is beautiful! Love the spattered background, and the flowers are just fabulous. Such a beautiful sentiment, as well!

This one is fabulous, Sue! Your coloring is just gorgeous and love the spatter and faux stitching! The petals are formed so beautifully! You added just the right amount of stickles too, not too much and not too little! I LOVE it!

FAUX STITCHING!!!!!! I am in awe!!!! Everything about this is beautiful Greenie, from the fabulous splattered background to your beautifully coloured flowers and lovely sentiment and let's not forget that incredible faux stitching. Your card won't be late, it will probably arrive with Sydney Sue's and mine. Imagine that, three cards on the same day and we all have the same first name LOL. I digress, straight into My Favs.
