My card today features piercing as a border and as embroidery. I hope you it inspires you.
For the flower medallions, I cut each at a different width, but all are are 12” long and scored at 1/4” all across. I fan folded each strip, glued the ends together and adhered with Tomboy Mono Adhesive to a 1/2” punched circle. I added the brads and adhered to my card the same way. My leaves are punched with the Blossom Petals Die.

- Beyond the Garden DSP
- Wild Wasabi, Whisper White and Pacific Point Cardstock

WOW! This card is stunning! I wish my attempts at the fan flower looked like yours! I love the colors and the stitching as well. So very pretty.
Hey there, Flower Pal! I LOVE this card too, but I knew I would! You know I love anything you make! Love the mix of patterns and the trio of flowers together! So smart to combine your "paper piercing" with a little embroidery! I love it! Love all the bling too! A perfect balance! Thanks for sharing, friend! Lots of hugs! -

Gorgeous card Carla! We are on the same track with the embroidery technique! And I love how the flowers made with patterned paper turned out!

Carla, it is such a lovely card! How do you mail cards like this or with the flowers you make? I'd be so afraid that they would get smashed even with a padded envelope.

Beautiful, as always! I love the colors!
Carla, what a fabulous card, love how you've combined the paper piercing, but truly love your talented embroidery especially the stems, so gracefuly. I haven't made the fan flowers, but you've convinced me I have to give 'em a try. Love the little baby half-flower too. You card is just so pretty!
So love the flowers, especially how you half opened one of them!
Awesome flowers. They definitely pack a punch! Great card.
