For this week's TLC: Slimline card. I made mine a mini slimline and enjoyed every minute of it.
Today's colors: Coastal Cabana, Flirty Flamingo, Petal Pink. Dessert: Stitches-I used square stitched dies.
I finally chose these flower images after checking out all of my flower stamps. Two of them have never seen ink. I colored with my ink pads and a paint brush, adding wink of stella to the centers. I sponged the edges to give more depth and color then popped them over a subtle embossed vanilla panel. Thanks for stopping by! ~Roberta

GF, this is beautiful. Frankly, I prefer the smaller slimline. Remember when we used to call them tall cards?! Your flowers are so dainty and pretty. Love the subtle background too. You rocked these challenges.

I love this. Such crisp clear and bright colours. I love the bg embossing and the wonderful design of this card. I am going to try a full size slim line and use that design. Thanks for the inspiration Roberta.

Beautiful slimline card, Roberta, and I love your design with the sweet flowers. The watercoloring of the flowers looks great. Plus, great idea with the sponging to make the flowers pop.
