It's all about the texture!
I used the October Hero Arts (HA) challenge sketch ideas for this card. Too late to enter HA's challenge, but I had to try this sketch and decided something done with my new Spellbinders dies would spire me. I chose cream colored card stock and the smallest die which I then stamped with this flower HA stamp from the Asian Fram set (CL275). I clear embossed them and found left-over blue card stock to start planting my flowers. I mounted the blue panel onto the same cream card stock I used for the die-cuts. Looks like a quilt to me. Added the twine and 5 large pearls for interest. The last pearl is hiding right under the bow, bottom right. When I finished, I thought, wow, looks like there's a lot of texture there... ta-da... Lily Pad Cards, here's my entry for your wonderful texture challenge. The sponsor is Simon Says Stamp - wonderful goodies at stake here.

This card is really beautiful, Arlene! I love grid style cards and this one has so many lovely elements. So sorry you missed the Hero Arts challenge, but I'm glad you entered this at Lily Pad Cards, thanks for playing with us!
I love the blocks of embellies to look like a quilt, very creative!
