Such an interesting Pinterest Board today for the Inspiration Challenge. It was difficult to decide on just one for inspiration ... but I finally settled on this floral image. I wanted to keep my card on the lighter side. I die cut my panel, then die cut using the smaller die again, and embossed that piece with the swirly embossing folder. I watercoloured the tea cup and flowers, which are die cut and attached, the flower with foam dots. Thanks for looking today ... aplaceforkia

Kia what a stunning card. I love the soft, warm colors of your card. I'd love to have a teacup and blossom just like that! Gorgeous!
