This will go out to Amanda who likes the color blue and her favorite flower is the hydrangea. I did an emboss resist on the flower using white ep and then applying brushos. I added some perfect pearls to the brushos to add some sparkle and dotted the centers with liquid pearls. I cut out the flower and mounted it over a stenciled bg. I'm using one of my favorite embellishments ( I should say my current fav..it usually changes)....liquid pearls. They're always fun to use.

I just don’t think to use liquid pearls as much as I should. I love the look that it adds. This is gorgeous wth the brushos and the fabulous stenciling, Polly!

Polly, your cards just amaze me, and this one is right up there! I adore this multi-colored stenciled background and how it sets the perfect stage for this stunning hydrangea. I have not thought to use powders to color like this before, but I will try it now so thank you for the wonderful inspiration on this. I love liquid pearls too and you have used them beautifully here. What a gorgeous card to send to Amanda. ~Karen.

Polly, this is gorgeous!!! The soft stenciling is a lovely backdrop for your marvelous hydrangea. The embossing, liquid pearls and fussy cutting make this a standout!
