Asian Garden.

There's a new sketch challenge at Waltzingmouse. For this week #114, I made a card with the Asian Garden stamp set. I embossed the middle part of the background on vellum. The four biggest flowers were also stamped on vellum with white embossing powder. I put a white pearl on the middle of each flower. I cut the white frame with one of a Spellbinders Picot Edge Circles dies. I stitched the edges and put a white velvet ribbon and some twine.





Here's the sketch made by Anya Schrier:
