This card was started yesterday using the color challenge from Penny.....Pool,Cabana,Coral. Using acrylic paint after cutting the flowers from dies, painted them with the one stroke method. Added stitckles for the centers. Painted the envelope and then it sat overnight. Seeing the sketch challenge from Ally this morning..there were 5 flowers., assembled the card, Embossed the oval frame..scored the one panel, outline the one layer with a pool party marker. Added the sentiment. This is going to my friend and neighbor who is turning 95. She still drives, lives by herself and is a delight to spend time with. A surprise party is planned. The card will be hand delivered. TFL

Oh, Linda! The flowers you created are beautiful with the addition of the white acrylic paint and stickles. The embossing on the white panel is fantastic as is the patterned paper. Great card for your friend! Wow! 95 years old and driving! That's fantastic!

Oh my goodness this is wonderful Linda. I love your take on the challenge and your penmanship is AMAZING!!! What treat for your neighbour, this gorgeous card AND a surprise party! I miss our elderly neighbour terribly but she is having a ball at the retirement home, apparently leading a conga chain at midnight on New Years Eve.
