The daisy's have been colored with a yellow distress marker on the back side of the vellum and the brads were originally white so I colored them with a yellow spectrum noir pen. The little gems and butterfly are also yellow.

Hope you all enjoy a Fun and safe Independence day!! My hubby has to work, so we will be missing out on the fun this year.
I thought I would share a cross-stitching I did a few years back and I made it into a wall hanging.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by and saying Hi,
Connie

Ah love embossed vellum and think it's great to colour too, use all sorts, one this week using Panpastels, hope to post soon, love this one Connie!!! And the one below....
Also...must use a different folder but would work well too. Thanks for idea!!
Pray you are recovered from your tumble head first I have done that twice, I skinned my nose from bridge to tip last time.. With glasses metal nose piece, but mercifully did not break them as it was smack first onto cement.
Won't go inoto rest of injuries, but first one was worst, with knee ten stitches from landing on metal foot scrapper. Nose badly bruised and bit skinned...Don't do things by halves, and still have the scars :D
Pray that Randy has recovered okay too, not fun ... accidents.
Thanks for popping over, Shaz in Oz.x

Oh Connie...and may the Lord bless your land and mine ...on Independence Day and every day of year.. Love the teddy sooo cute!!! Shaz.x
Beautiful card, Connie, and I love the vellum! Great tip about running it through with a regular piece of paper! And what a gorgeous cross-stitch wall hanging. I used to love to cross-stitch and love this adorable and sweet image. And what beautiful quilting you've done! Happy Fourth of July, my friend! Hugs!
That looks very fresh and sweet, Connie...glad if you atr feeling a bit better, and no bones broken!
perhaps you could celebrate a bit tomorrow if your hubby is home; mine has recently started working Saturdays too, We are getting used to that but don't love it!!
Take good care of yourself

You have many crafting talents!! The card is so summery and beautiful!!
happy 4th to you!
love the quilt.
tip: to emboss vellum add a piece of "grunge" paper it will soften a bit the "cracking"

Pretty card Connie and I love that patriotic wall hanging, so cute! Have a wonderful week!
The embossed vellum looks amazing, Connie! Such a beautiful card. And I LOVE the cross-stitched wall hanging. So cute!
Beautiful card Connie. Love the pretty daisies on vellum. I can imagine it wasn't easy to emboss the vellum... but it turned out great. Love the colors. Neat wall hanging!
Your card is so absolutely pretty with the embossed vellum! I hadn't heard of running it through with a sheet of paper to avoid cracking. I'll have to try that! Thanks for sharing your wall hanging, too. You are a woman of many talents!
