Colors courtesy of this week's color challenge. I stamped the flower in Regal Rose Craft and clear embossed it. I would have liked to use a little more Regal Rose, but the Craft color is just a bit off. I added the Summer Sun to try to perk it up but I'm not sure it helped much. To make the Print Pattern background, I sponged Blush Blossom on Whisper White, then stamped with Versamark, shaded with Stampin' Pastels and sprayed with matte sealer.

Lucky, lucky me.......I got to see Leslie's beautiful card IRL. You just can't believe how soft and all the shading texture in the Print Pattern BG. So creative and so Leslie. I like the added summer sun. TFS

Wonderful effect with the chalks on that Print Pattern - so dimensional! I love the stitching around the focal flower, and is that Canvas stamped on the photo turn? Of course, I love that pearl brad! :o) The yellow is definitely a nice contrasting touch. Lovely design, as always. TFS. Linda
