Today's color challenge...Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery, and Orchid Opulence...... I feel like the movie titled "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon"....except I am crouching behind my craft desk hiding from my orchid opulence. I have always had a fear of this color......the irony....I moved my craftroom from upstairs to down over Christmas to my daughter's room...she now lives upstairs. This room is painted an orchid opulence shade. I am surrounded by this color....literally.....with A LOT of black accessories. Just had to share!!!!
So here is my card. I embraced the orchid and used a lot of it!!!!I cannot believe I still have SU retired light orchid ribbon....I decided to use it, too!!!!! Love this stamp set!!!
Thanks Emily for another challenging color combo!!!!

Really beautifully done and so glad that you beat your fear of Orchid Opulence. Love the stamp that you used, the ribbons, the gems in the flowers and the brads. TFS

This is beautiful. That is a great set! Funny, I adore Orchid Opulence but never use it. Must be a fear of running out. Gorgeous card! Love the ribbon and the brads. Awesome!
