Pink, aqua and kraft...

...is my favourite colour scheme.  So I had to make another card for Embellish Magazine's current challenge.  For this card, I created a fabric flower using THIS amazing tutorial by the wonderful Betsy Veldman.  I just ADORE her style... I so wish I had the talent to create like her.  Sigh.
The Flower Wallpaper stamp is one of my favourite cling stamps.  I love it tone on tone... especially in pink. :)  
I've never made a card with fabric before.  Love learning new things. :)
