Hello Peeps!!

Today I am sharing a card I made using the challenge this week at 

Fab Friday. 

This time is a great color challenge:

I used the new Ornate Garden stamp set for my floral image. 

I stamped the image twice so I could color and cut out the part I wanted to use.

 I colored using all of the above colors.

The floral image was stamped with Black Stazon ink on to Thick Whisper White

card stock. I colored using my Aqua Painter.

 

I used a piece of  Mango Melody DSP from the Brights 6 x 6 pack.

I used a couple of the Stitched So Sweetly dies to layer my flowers on and for the sentiment.

The sentiment come from the Under My Umbrella stamp set and is stamped with Daffodil Delight ink.

I die cut a few leaves with Vellum using a die from the retired Wonderful Romance Bundle.

I tucked them in and around my flowers.

I finished up with some basic pearls.
