White Flowers

As you know I recently spent some time overseas. When in Australian the couple who hosted me really pulled out all the stops and so this is the card I made to thank them for their right royal spoiling of yours truly.

I took my inspiration from this image.

A similar card made using the same pattern and just a slightly different variation of card stock colours.

 I used artist pastels to shade the inside of the leaves in green and smudged them with an earbud.

The inspiration

On both cards I have used machine stitching to secure the kraft panel to the coloured card stock.

Here are a couple of other cards using this lovely pattern.

Pattern: Easy Embroidery on Paper by Joke de Vette
