This is for Careyâs beautiful Sketch Challenge and Stacyâs terrific Inspiration Challenge â Pottery Barn.
I was inspired by this bouquet of tulips.
I love tulips and I liked the look of the white washed worn wood. So I stamped my tulips on the lightest paper in SU Wood Textured DSP pack. For more texture, I embossed the pink panel with the Subtle Texture EF. Then I followed the sketch. I sponged the oval edges with Crumb Cake to accent the wood tones. The retired key tag punch was perfect for #3 on the layout. The sentiment is white embossed. I die-cut the green edge and as I was gluing it down & straightening it, I inadvertently pushed it off the edge of the card base a little bit. I liked it. Sometimes we discover the best things by "mistake". Thereâs Wink of Stella on the tulips and leaves. I decided this card is going to my MIL for Easter, so I added a pretty scrap of yarn that she has given me for my card-making.
Two wonderful challenges. TFL

I love the texture of the flowers, it actually looks like they were painted on wood. The colors and the edges are very pretty too!

Love that the tulips look like they are stamped on birch bark! These pretty spring colours are my favourites. That lacy border and yarn embellishment really add so much to this card! Beautiful Diane!
