Lisa would like us to make a birthday card for Margaretha's birthday. She is 102 young. We needed to add a bow. I usually don't keep my scraps after making a card, unless it was made from my good watercolor paper. This base was for the WCW018 embossing folders. It was sanded after watercoloring. The bow was from another attempt that didn't turn out. Cut the bow from the mistake. Added liquid pearls. Printed and colored the image, along with the sentiment. Hope she enjoys this vibrant colors and deep texture. Glad my paper is not going to waste. Wouldn't it be nice to flood her room with cards. TFL

Love this purple creation, Linda. The pearl dots on the flower and bow give such a happy feel to your card. Your w/c embossed background adds such richness! Your w/c flowers are beautiful!

I always love seeing what you do with that lace ef, Linda. This is gorgeous, and your rescued bow looks super. I love the almost monochromatic treatment.
