So glad I saw this challenge. I received the W Plus 9 Freehand Florals just a few days ago, but hadn't used them, thinking the learning curve might be pretty steep. Thanks for motivating me to open the package, at which time I learned that it took just a bit of practice on scrap paper to learn how to layer the stamps.
Interestingly, if anybody is still reading, it took only one shade of pink and one shade of purple to create the flowers. I stamped the base layer once; each of the "detail layers" was stamped twice (with MISTI) and the depth of color was perfect!

So glad you pulled these roses out and had fun playing with them. You sure created a lovely card here- the wreath is really unique and one I have not seen before and really like. The roses are perfect with this wreath. ~Karen.

Christine, this is GORGEOUS! Thank you for the tip about double stamping the color with the MISTI. I've tried the stamping off and am not always as happy with the color. And what a beautiful wreath die! I love that and the beautiful layout with the scoring! STUNNING card!! Hugs!
