SC921 = I used a cover-all die to create the diamond bg. My flower panel has also been enlarged.
WCW118 = painting white flower(s) with dark bg. The video was very good, but I departed somewhat. I liked her flowers before she painted the petal edges with gold paint...so I used gold ink for splatters and didn't outline the tulip's petals. Also, just a personal perference, I'm not fond of "head on" flowers, so this is more a side 3/4 view of the flower. Added a gold pen border around the panel.

OMGOSH, Sallie! Your tulip watercoloring is fantastical, so rich and beautiful depth! Love your gold splatters and gold pen edged framing, plus finishing off with that lovely white cover-plate die-cut background framing! GORGEOUS card!

Beautiful! Love the watercolor tulip, the stunning BG, and the gold spatters instead of edging the flower. The gold frame is perfect. Beautiful EF.

I really like how you mounted your image on the cover die bg along with a gold frame. The gold frame is perfect along with the gold splatters. The tulip is absolutely beautiful. Love the shadow effect behind it. Added to my favorites.
