Another card for today's color challenge of Pink Pirouette, Real Red and Pear Pizzazz. This time I substituted Certainly Celery for the Pear.
My flower is from Technique Tuesday's Spiro Garden. It's stamped with Real Red on Pink Pirouette and cut out. The leaves are punched with an EK Success punch from Certainly Celery. The background is embossed with a Quickutz embossed folder and matted with Pink Pirouette. Before I embossed, I brayered Pink Pirouette on the folder. You can see it in real life, but it's very hard to see in the picture. It's matted with Pink Pirouette. The sentiment (from PTI's Birthday Basics) is stamped with Certainly Celery and matted on Celery, too. The button is from SU! and I also used grosgrain ribbon.

Oh, this is GORGEOUS Lynette!! WOW!! Your flower is lovely, and that background is just awesome. I don't think I've seen that embossing folder... in fact, I thought the white raised part was cut out, because I could tell the background was a bit darker. Such a pretty effect. GREAT card!!
