A card for the Alphabet challenge. This week we are on the letter F. I used fuchsia coloured paper and a fuchsia flower stamp. I painted the stamp with watercolours and after stamping, I worked over the flowers, and stems until I got the result I wanted. I don't have any fancy round dies, but I used an oval one and cut a piece out of the middle to make it fit around my round image panel. The sentiment was stamped in SU orchid opulence, but it wasn't quite distinct enough so I went over it with a fuschia colour tombow marker.

Fantastic! Love the fuchsia flowers and the color. The fancy edge is so pretty. I like the two-tone sentiment. The multi-faceted gem is a lovely addition. Great background, too. Fabulous card for letter F. TFS

Awesome colors! I too have orchid opulence and I haven't used it in quite some time. This makes me want to dig it out and use it again. I love it! Thanks for the inspiration.

wow, lots of great things here! Love the background image. Great improvising on the oval to circle, I wouldn't have guessed and it really adds a nice element to the card. Very pretty.
Your watercolor fuschia is beautiful, Ina! That Lacy die under it really is perfect for it and the little gem on the sentiment is pretty, too. Orchid Opulence is a favorite of mine and a blast from the past.
