I paper pieced the Fifth Avenue Floral image with Raspberry Tart DSP, popped it up on dimensionals, sprinkled the edges of the flower and the coral layer with dazzling diamonds, added the vintage die cuts to the corners, pearls, ef for the white b/g and used the MS doiley lace border punch for the decorative edge. I added a white silk ribbon and popped up 2 of the panels on dimensionals.
Thanks so much for taking a quick moment to look and if you have a chance to comment, I'd like to hear what you think!! Happy Saturday!!!

Pamster, this is some gorgeous paper piecing AND piercing. I love your corners and the addition of the pearls. This card is beautiful in raspberry, reds, corals...although, a change from your usual blue. You are really stepping out doing all these different things as of late. Like your doily lace
punch. I think that was the first decorative border punch I bought and it adds
such a wonderful edging. Just beautiful...I would have loved to have done
a card on Clownmom's featured day but I didn't get to do that.
