Water colour roses

This is the card made for a friend's birthday. She has received it already ( but with strict instructions not to open it until her b/day later this week!!)


Initially I pricked the pattern. Then taped the white card stock to a board to prevent warping and lightly inked in the flowers. When they where dry I did the stitching.

My inspiration

  1. This is so pretty! Your stitchery is perfectly executed and I especially like the idea of adding the pink ink to the card before stitching. Wonderful inspiration to those of us who haven't picked up a needle in several years. Thank you for playing along with us at Double Trouble #46 and we'd love to see your card at Brown Sugar Challenge, too.
