This card is for sweet Maura's (beesmom) Color Challenge for this week. She chose a beautiful combination of Rich Razzleberry, Sweet Sugarplum, and Smoky Slate. For dessert, she selected a sympathy or thinking of you card. My card is a thinking of you card.
Masking both sides of the white card stock, I sponged on the three colors, stamped the cheesecloth background stamp over the colors, and spritzed a mixture of water and Pearl Ex onto the area. I then double die cut the tulip bouquet from white card stock (one is stacked on the other), and single cut the same with the three featured color card stock. I arranged the card stock pieces in the tulips.
After adding "stitched lines" onto both the white and sugarplum card stock, I added the sentiment, crystal drops, sequins, and bow.
Enjoy and thanks for viewing and leaving comments!

This is really gorgeous! I love the colors you used and how you designed this beautiful card. This tulip die is really special the way you made the petals different colors. I love the sponged background piece in the middle and how that showcases this lovely bunch of tulips. The stitching and sequins are fantastic! ~Karen.

Bev, this is beautiful! I love how you masked your panel with a torn edge (I love tears/tearing) and the added touch of the partial cheesecloth stamp. The colors work beautifully with your tulip die, and also love how you incorporated the colors too! You are a genius! ;)
