Unity What Lies Within flower image stamped with Versafine black, stamped off once. I coloured it with chalks to match the pleated border, and sprayed with fixative, added IO sentiment and embossed for extra
definition.
I used a Fiskars punch (used some flowers from it on the image panel), pleated it and stitched to image panel, which is popped up on foam tape.
For the base - I used my homemade circle stencil with the same chalks as the image panel, and a marker for doodling the edge. I added some sequins and Paper Pen dots.

Wow, Sabrina... this is so nicely designed. You achieved such a lovely look with the chalks... I never think to use mine. That peach color is perfect for chalks. Your hand made circle stencil worked great, and the pleating is wonderful. You have such a unique, wonderful style. By the way, could you fly out to Calif this weekend to help me cook the Passover meal.... I am already traumatized.

This is such a sweet and pretty card. I love the pretty flowers and the sponged dots. You did a great job with pleating your border. Now I am seeing stitching, this girl loves stitching.

Lovely b'day card in the soft peaches and greens, Sabrina. The pleated trim adds a wonderful dimensional accent. Your created bg panel adds without being distracting.
