Judy gave us a new-to-me fold for today's technique, the Dutch Fold. It's easy but makes a great presentation. Tricia's Clean and Simple challenge is May Flowers, so I got both in with one card : )
I stamped and embossed the hydrangea, watercolored and cut out with the coordinating die cuts. I also cut out separate pieces from heavy white cardstock to glue behind the cut water colored images, which added stability. The inside has a single petal from the hydrangea. Thanks for great challenges today, ladies!

What lovely colouring on the hydrangea - and I'm glad to hear you had a die to cut it out, or it would have been a lot of fussy cutting! This is so soft and pretty, Claudia.

Claudia, this is GORGEOUS! I so love hydrangeas, and your watercoloring is beautiful! I agree about adding additional card stock for stability. I've not made a Dutch fold, but this is beautifully done! Stunning! Hugs! xoxo
