I used an image called Flower Pocket 7, colored up with Promarkers and fussy cut. I made my own background using two yellow paints. I embossed it with an embossing folder that came free with a magazine, then I used a white gelato to rub onto the pattern for highlighting. The flower border is made with a Fiskars punch my aunt gave me for my birthday. I added a few yellow pearls, a sentiment - congratulations - and then white machine stitching along the edges.

Your backgrounds with gelatos are adorable and this isn't an exception!! Fabulous! Another technique that I must try!! Love this sunny card with the "denim" flower pocket! The lovely punched border looks very sweet, it has been a beautiful gift from your aunt!

This is gorgeous Pia! Fabulous design, l love the pocketful of flowers and the super background! The flower border is beautiful too!
The yellow background really works perfectly with the strip of flowers. I like you kept these in white, so very elegant and makes the blue of pocket really pop x
A beautiful card Pia! Lovely colours and I like the background you created! hugs, Marlies
Lovely card, thanks for joining us at Craft Rocket, xxx
Oh I love this background!!! And that Fiskars punch is perfect to set off the image!
I don't have gelatos... one more medium I'm scared to start buying... if I like something, I tend to want it all!!!
Love the yellow background, beautiful texture, lovely card;-))m
That yellow is bright and cheery but soft enough to allow the pocket to take centre stage. You've got the balance just right and the Gelatto highlights add enough interest without crowding out the focal image. Really well done, Pia.
