I tried this week's Technique Challenge for Paper Towel Flowers, this is the first time I have tried this type of challenge so I was rather relieved that it was something simple...
I used Cherry Limeade Glimmer Mist in big splotches all over the paper towel, this was a good effect once the circles had been torn out..
Based the colours for the card on the shade of the flower and the button from K&Co, therefore incorporating the beige bazzill bling, pale blue and cream.
I built the flower garland from a repeat image in the Lotus Floral Stamps by Amy Butler. The leaves are from the same set...
Thanks for looking, hope you can play along!

Edna, you did a wonderful job on this challenge. LOVE how your flower turned out and look at you girl, you used the color blue!!! If I remember correctly, blue isn't your favorite color. I, however, LOVE blue and your whole card is spectacular. Love all your details, ribbon and borders. TFS!!
