I put a piece of mellow moss through the crimper to resemble the tufts of the pillow. I used the reverse CB technique for the narrow strip. I had to use bubbles b/c I don't have the one that's more square. Now I am thinking why didn't I use my gingham black checked ribbon - DUH!! I might be taking this apart b/f sending it off for my BFF birthday! I used chalk on the pansies, giving them a softer look, like the velvet of the pillow. I think it took an hour to cut them all out. Yikes! They are all raised on a pop dot.
Thanks for looking.

Oh Karen, after learning about your back, I'm surprised you were able to create such a gorgeous card with so much flair. Girl, you done good today! I checked out your inspiration, and that what you created is so fabulous. Love it. Hmmmm....maybe that's what you get from eating the last cinnamon roll that was intended for me. Hope you think twice about doing that in the future!

I love your pansies here! Wonderful job on coloring them so softly! Love the look of your cb'd panel and crimped bottom panel. Super job! TFS :0)
