It feels so good to do a CAS challenge again! I've not been able to do them regularly in a while, and I sure hope summer changes that.
This challenge is really cool and made me do something I have not really done before: fold ribbon. I love this look! I used Mark's Finest Paper's fabulous 120lb white cardstock and their soft and lovely satin ribbon, and SU oval punches (much neglected) and Pocket Silhouettes stamp set (one of my all-time favorites from SU!).
The scallop oval is popped up on a double level of dimensionals, and the smooth oval is popped on one layer. The stems are accented with Smooch, my new favorite product. I posted a second close-up picture of the shimmer of the smooch. So very pretty!
Thanks so much to the CAS DT and to Denise and Jen for consistently posting awesome challenges and inspiration for us CAS stampers!

Honestly, Susan, you just blow me away with these wonderful designs. I LOVE this. You picked one of my favorite little images and made it look so big and beautiful with this lovely ribbon.
