My card for this weeks color challenge All Abloom, I used Strawberry Slush, Pistachio Pudding and Lost Lagoon. I love the leaves in the Kinda Eclectic stamp set and I paired them up with the roses in Stippled Blossoms, they both have that vintage feel I love. The flowers are a two step stamp and I stamped the base off once on scrap to get the lighter look of the Strawberry Slush and then full strength for the top overlay. The sentiment comes from the Wetlands stamp set. I keep the BG CAS to let the flowers be the star. Thanks for looking!

So great that you let the flowers be the star, they are so pretty, and so neat how you have them around the circle and partly out of it...prolbably a word for that style but forget what it is...pretty for sure though...:0)...TFS
