As one would expect of "art ceramics" most of the colors were in the earthen tones, but I was drawn to this photo with its bright tulips and cross-over vase. The tiny black edging reminded me of a zipper, so that's what I added to my card.

Oh Sallie, I LOVE this!!! You have represented the vase of tulips superbly, especially with that zipper die and of course, your watercolor expertise! Outstanding, and faved!!
I too, was feeling inspired by the same image and was thinking of trying the bendi fold technique for crossover panels; but I don't have any tulips stamps and I had my sweet 18 m.o. grandson all day, so I will have to resume my thinking tomorrow for that one.

Your card jumped out of the gallery for me! It could be because I so love color or it could be your flowers or maybe just maybe because your card is gorgeous and your water color like no one else! Beautiful Sallie!

knew immediately which inspiration piece you chose, didnt even have to click the link. You did a brilliant job of the tulips, and the folded wrap in that shape.
