This week's colour challenge was to use the colours Blushing Bride, Certainly Celery & Soft Suede. The Featured Stamper for this week is susanbri. Susan, your gallery is absolutely awesome and I had a number of your cards favourited to CASE, I finally chose this one -
I kept the layout pretty much the same, excepting I just added a layer. I didn't have any dp to match with the colours so I stamped the flower over the white card in Blushing Bride. I don't own a crimper so, instead, die cut then embossed my large label. I used SU Field Flowers, stamped the stems in Certainly Celery, stamped the flowers and their centres on separate paper in Blushing Bride and Soft Suede, cut them out and adhered them using dimensionals. I stamped and punched out the sentiment and added the pearls.
Thank you for looking!

Sue, how pretty. I like how you used the flower head image for your bg panel. The main panel is done beautifully with the flower images and the soft shadows around them.
You chose a great card and you did a great job with this one!
It is so pretty. I like your stamped flowers and how you "shadowed" them. Very pretty stamped bg. I love a stamped bg, myself.

Sue, thank you so much for your kind words about my gallery and for CASEing a card in my honour while I'm Featured Stamper. Your card is fabulous - I think the Swiss dots embossed layer is a perfect substitute for my crimped layer. And I love your home-made dp - a great idea as it matches your focal image perfectly. The cut-out flowers are perfect and the shadowing of them really makes them pop.
