Violas.

This week at the Timeless Tuesday #185 of Flourishes we are asked to create a mini card! No larger than 4"x 3"! That's really small! I chose the violas from the Botanical Bookplates stamp set of Flourishes. I added some dimensional pearlescent paint on the middle of the little flowers. The white background is embossed with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. I made some stitching with my sewing-machine. I added a white flower, a Marianne Design butterfly, some green velvet ribbon and twine. I used the sketch of the Mojo Monday 257-Contest.



Here's the Mojo Monday sketch:

    I loved this week's Mojo sketch and used it as well for one of my cards. I love the way you have designed your card and those violas. May have to give the challenge a try today.
