THIS lovely trifold of Lorraine's went into my favourites as soon as I saw it. I had the original to work with as a template .
I think I'll add a white gel-pen edging to the red layer of the vase - will edit photo tomorrow as it's getting dark here after a mostly pouring wet and grey day.
Card is 4" wide by 7 1/2" high. I used a 12" piece, scored at 4" and 8" and then trimmed the front to make the vase. Then I stamped Pretty Petals with StazOn white. The red layer underneath is embossed with Birds and Vines.
Because of our atrocious weather today I wanted colour, so I used yellow and orange for my punched flowers. Some are popped up on foam, they have green distress Stickles in the centres. I used white Liquid Pearls to simulate gypsophila, and added a few punched leaves.

This is super cute with such happy flowers! Sorry you are having such dreary weather - we had a lovely rain shower this morning, and now the sun is out. I am using almost two hands now! 1 3/4

You have so many pretty details on this - the stickles, the gypsophilia, and the embossed background on the vase background that echoes the print on the vase. Wonderfully done! I'm lucky to have such a clever and talented friend!
