In order to keep from cutting off the leaf tips when using the oval die, I first cut around the ends of the leaves with a craft knife. Then I slipped the die underneath to make the oval cut.
The leaves are colored with a green marker. The shading is done by going over some of the lines again after the first coat dries and sinks into the paper a bit. Green bakers twine provides the only embellishment needed.
The striped dsp was cut out from a large scrap--just right for this card!

So pretty and serene! I love lily of the valley. They remind me of my mother.
