Welcome
I needed a birthday card in a hurry, and chose to use this Katy Sue printed sheet of images
They are pop-out images, with no white edges, which gives a stunning result.
I chose this pansy image as my friend loves pansies!
They decoupage beautifully - it's a bit fiddly, but well worth the effort.
The only thing I added to the image was some light penciling under the vase to form a shadow to 'ground' the image.
I embossed the sentiment, a very old clear stamp, with glitter gold embossing.
The white panel was inked with yellow around the edges
The inside panel has a strip of yellow washi tape, some of which was also added to the envelope.

Hi Maxine, I was so surprised to get your comment on my blog - it has been so very long for me to post. It really made me mist up that you took the time to compliment my tiny cards. Thank you so very much. I really like your vase of flowers, they look like they jump right off of the page! Have a beautiful day. Blessings, Barb
What a beauty! I love the dimension of the lovely image.
Those pansies look stunning and your sparkly sentiment is the perfect compliment. Nothing else is needed. The recipient will absolutely love it xx
It is definitely a stunning card, Maxine. Hugs, my friend.
Very pretty Maxine, nice to see you back!
Such a beautiful card Maxine.
Wow this so pretty and perfectly decoupaged. Thanks so very much for joining us this time at Dragonfly Dreams Challenge
Hi Maxine, a stunning card, Love the pansies in so many colours. If you had not told us you added the pencil shadow I would have thought it part of the design. Have a wonderful week... Megan
A perfect way to give a bunch of flowers through the mail! Hugs, Gerrina

I love the pansy. They are a childhood favorite with memories from my grandmother's garden. Just a fantastic image and card. Love the colors.
Love, Hugs and Blessings
