This is my card for alpha challenge letter L post #990. I used a lily image and some crocheted lace for my letter L. I watercolored the lily by pressing distress inks on my craft sheet & picking up the color with a water brush.

Pretty contrast in colors! We have a running joke about lilies. DH calls them lacker lilies because his hearing is bad and that's what he thought I said when I said tiger lilies! LOL

Gorgeous! Love the blue and orange together. The lily is so pretty. I like the punched flowers, too. The lace trim really makes this card special. Very nicely done for Letter L. TFS

Wow! I love the vibrancy of those colours! That day lily is beautiful, as are the beautiful punched flowers. Beautiful lace border too.......did you crochet it yourself? I always have trouble getting a true measurement when I make a lace border for cards.

Love your color combination. Makes your card so rich and vibrant. I too love the touch of crocheted lace. Wish I could crochet. All my cards would have it on them!
