Here is my card for today's Inspiration Challenge 326 ~ Superfine Bakery. I chose the beach cake as my inspiration, which is just gorgeous! I have had this orchid bookmarked, just waiting for the right time to use it. The background did not work as well as I had envisioned (does it ever, lol). I used an embossing folder and then tried to just VersaMark the raised image and then emboss in white. It was difficult to just get the VersaMark on the raised part because I was using a pad, but I did the best I could. I clear embossed the orchid and used dimensionals to attach it.

Love it! I saw right away what cake inspired you - the wonderful greens... YUmmy! The flower is beautiful, perfect! And I do love your background, gives a great soft contrast to the flower panel!

Pretty orchid and I like the embossed, glittered background, too. It's hard to do what you attempted and get it perfect but I think it looks like it was "meant to be" exactly as good as it looks!
