I embroidered the dimensional flowers from the Rose Gold Bridal lace Collection onto organza to create a birthday card for my friend. I added the butterfly, as if it was hovering over the flowers, at least that's what I was hoping to achieve :-) My hubby was rather critical, saying there wasn't enough colour and contrast. Maybe he's right.

What a beautiful card to send, so much thought and work has obivously gone into making the card for your firend. I haven't done any embroidery for many months now but you have given me an idea for a wedding acceptance card I need to send, I hope you don't mind me taking inspiration from your card🤔

WOW! I think that your colours are perfect. Love seeing experimentation with my dimensional flowers. How did you find embroidering these flowers on organza?

They embroidered perfectly, Hazel. I cut them out with a hot tool, which was easy. My machine went wrong afterwards, so I wasn't able to put them together that way, I had to send it for a service and it's been delivered back today. So, I put the flowers together by hand, stitching French knots in a metallic gold embroidery floss. Jenny loved it.

If you have not yet experimented with dimensional flowers may I encourage you to do so. They are great fun lifting your embroidery off the fabric!
