I've planted some pansies in my "garden", I embroidered the pattern with multi color thread, colored the inside of the die cut oval aperture with a pencil, cut the pansies and made the 3D inked the edges with brown pigment ink pad and embellished with golden sticker lines and dots.

Pretty pansies - and as always your stitching is amazing. You've got an amazing textured effect with your colouring behind the pansies - it almost looks like long stitches in wool.

Your embroidery work on cards always amazes me, Anita! What a gorgeous addition to the garden gallery today! Pansies happen to be one of my favorite flowers, right after daisies!

Anita, what a gorgeous card! Love your amazing embroidery. I thought at first the background behind the pretty pansies was wood until I read your description - fantastic!
