Today's Inspiration Challenge took us to such a pretty site; I chose this piece as my inspiration. I love the embroidery and the aged look; I can never translate age/ vintage well, but instead I chose some rustic cream paper to help me along.

Gorgeous Spring card! I love the texture the felt pieces bring to the composition. You did an awesome job interpreting the vintage style! Thanks for playing along this weekend and Happy Easter to you!

This turned out GREAT! I like how you stamped the leafy section on the sentiment panel and then put the felt flowers as an extension of that. The colors on this sure say Spring! I enjoyed looking and drooling at the embroidery section on this place, too.

This is so pretty!!! I am always so impressed with paper embroidery! It looks so technical, yet so beautiful! Love your spring color palette and your button flower is awesome! GREAT take on the embroidered inspiration piece!
