I used a new Hero Arts stamp set called Pattern Hearts & Flowers, and was heavily influenced by Tami and Lisa, coloring the flowers with distress inks mixed with water. I colored my seam binding the same way. (note to self: use a lighter hand with the worn lipstick distress ink next time - this is looking neon here :))

AWESOME!!!
This is gorgeous Lin! Love how you colored those flowers in! :> I love the seam binding! Just got my hands on some and will have to try it! :> I think it looks great! :> For the ribbon did you layer the ribbon and instead of tieing it used the brad to hold it together?
Beautiful bright flowers! Lovely card! I love the bright color on your ribbon! :)
Such a pretty card, love it!! (: (: (:
Fabulous job with the distress inks! Love that flower set, it's on my wish list!
I don't think the ribbon is neon looking, it's a perfect match to the pink in the flowers! It's bright and cheery and I LOVE how you inked those flowers up! This is BEEEEAUTIFUL!!
Gorgeous, Lin! Love how you colored the beautiful flowers! Thanks for playing along with CR84FN!

Just gorgeous, Lin! And your bow is the perfect color, too!

You really nailed this challenge - those flowers are the perfect colors and the ribbon is so pretty with the brad in the center. Love it!
Exquisite Lin! I love how you color those flowers! And they looks perfect against the striped designer paper! Such a feminine touch on this card!

Wow! I love the embossed flowers and that seam binding color is gorgeous...makes me think of melon sherbet:)
Oh dear Lin, this card is very pretty! I love the white embossed flowers! What a beautiful technique! Thanks for joining along with CR84FN :)
a very sweet and pretty card Lin. It certainly is "just you" perfect colours for your style and great colouring
beautifully done Lin...
Wow - these flowers are amazing, Lin! I feel like I hae walked in your garden. You have already mastered this technique. And the colored-to-match binding is remarkable (& not too neon, really). Love this design, too.
Lin - this is just beautiful! I think the shading in the flowers is so pretty and the sentiment is fab! Thanks for playing along with CR84FN!
Lin, LOVE LOVE LOVE those flowers and your shading! Pretty card! THX for playing with us at CR84FN!
Beautiful card. I have used the seam binding for a while now, but have not used my Distress inks like this with stamped images. So cool. I think I will give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration :)
