The pot of flowers is paper pieced ... and the flowers are colored with the marker layering technique. I added a double strand of twine (with a double knot) on top of the gingham DP at the top.
For more details, and a close-up view, check out my blog.

Oh - I just love the gingham with those cheerful violets. They have such amazing dimension with your great colouring. Thank you for adding a knot to a card today ;-).
