I had to dust off this old set to use for today's Color Challenge. The flowers were all inked in Real Red and then misted with water before stamping to give them a little more of a watercolor effect. Two flowers are cut out and one is raised with a pop dot for added dimension. Lower panel is dry embossed. Sewing done on a sewing machine.
Thanks so much for looking!

I always love cards that are sewn. I think this is beautiful. I love the watercolored look of the flowers and how you popped them off the side of the panel. Great job..

This is totally scrumptious! I love it! Great stitching, love the softness of the flowers... I have a little trouble with the brightness of real red but this technique has just the right tone to be pleasing! Love it!
