What lovely spring colors for today's Color Challenge! And IÂ’m in for the dessert this time. As usual, since the colors are SU and I donÂ’t have them, I subbed using Distress Inks that are very close.
I determined where on the card front I wanted my little circle images to be. When I had that worked out, I die cut the top panel w/ the Spellbinders pierced rectangle then used a circle & a pierced circle die to cut my circles. I stamped the retro line circle inside each cut out using 3 Distress inks. The greeting was a little too long, so I masked part of it out & rearranged the rest. Then I die cut & punched all my flower parts, sponged some w/ ink, put them all together and attached to my card.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff

WOW is this pretty Julie!! You got a gasp out of me when I looked at this. The center flowers are awesome and I like how you used a lighter version of the other colors. Very nicely done!!

A truly outstanding paper flower bouquet, Julie. The circular opening with the colored circles were a great way to include the other colors of today's challenge.
