Challenges for to-day were crazy stitching and what's that smell. The lilac's are starting to bloom here and they are my favourite flower. Such a wonderful smell!! I decided to try to combine both challenges so we will see how that goes. The stitched images are from Close to my heart and the greeting is SU. I tried to do the whitewash technique ..sort of by shading with my white pigment pad and a sponge. This weekend is Victoria Day in Canada ..the first long weekend to start the summer so I am a bit late uploading my card.

Lovely card, Sue. I like how you shaded your flower with white...really turned out great. The faux stitching gives a lovely "homespun" feeling. Love the look of your sentiment too.

I love this! Sorry I'm so late in commenting but I haven't had time to browse galleries til now. Great job with the whitewash technique - I wasn't familiar with that but it looks wonderful!
