A glimpse of sunshine

Another card featuring stitching and flowers, this time a reminder for the current Fadengrafik Challenge that says "Ann's Paper Art". If you have any of Ann's beautiful patterns, join the fun and enter your stitched card til the end of May! If not - visit her site and get some of the freebies ;)
I decided to stitch my pattern with yellow and green yarn that match the main motif - a set of 3D sunflowers. Then, I combined it with yellow embossed paper and added a couple of pearls to the swirls.

For a little shimmer, I used a golden glue-glitter on the sunflowers and golden stickers on the edges.

Even though I made the card without a recipient in my mind, it already found a new home at a dear friend. After all, friends are the very best approximation to sunshine you can get :)
