Today's Color Challenge, CC568, hosted by Vicki (vdutchr) involves these three SU colors: So Saffron, Soft Sky, and Smoky Slate. Vicki did an outstanding job in selecting these colors as they are so beautiful together. Kudos to Vicki!
I made this card for the challenge. I stamped onto watercolor paper the three floral images, embossed them with white embossing powder, water colored them using the three selected colors, and fussy cut them. The first layer is an embossed piece of So Saffron CS with an Everything Eleanor image stamped onto it. Another Everything Eleanor image was stamped with So Saffron onto a piece of Whisper White CS on which the sentiment was stamped. This was matted with Soft Sky and Smoky Slate CS and embellished with sequins.
Enjoy, and TFL!

Fantastic idea to make an Easter card! The flowers are so spring like and the detail the embossing gives them really makes them stand out beautifully! I love your stamped flourish behind the flowers. TFS

...sure it�s got a catchy beat, but can you stamp to it?
