Then.....my card took on a mind of its own!!! I used the new 2 3/8" scallop circle punch for my masked sponged image using Pacific Point #new old In Color# and new In Color Pear Pizzazz. I inked and stamped the hydrangea with both colors and then stamped the flower head again and cut out. Popped it up with dimensionals.
The Pear Pizzazz reminds me of a lighter shade of Old Olive, so I think the ret. O Olive poly ribbon goes well. The spritzing was done with the retiring Itty Bitty Background stamp set.
Thanks LeAnne for the inspiration. I just LOVE your gallery. Enjoy your week :-)

Beautiful, Nancy! I love the flowers on dimension! The masked/sponged circle, itty bitty stamping and additional sponging are wonderful and I love the crispness of the blue and white! Great all around sentiment, too!

Wow, this is gorgeous! I can't wait to play with this stamp again and do some dimension! Thanks for taking my CAS card to the next level! That new pear color is quite pretty!

Just gorgeous, love the colors and how you did the bg and the scallop circle punch sponging, wow, does that make the bloom pop along with cutting it out. Your cards do take on a life of their own in such a beautiful way. Your attention to detail and the little techniques add the finishing touches. TVMFS,,,
