It's been a while since I joined the colour challenge and since I had a little bit of extra time ..here I am! LOL I really love this stamp set and don't use it half enough. I white embossed the background flowers then sponged tangerine in the centres. The other embossed flower was punched with the co-ordinating punch and popped up on a dimentional. The flourishes are from Marianne Designs and the birthday banner is just a strip of paper stamped, folded and sponged. I added some sparkly thread behind the main image because it looked a little bare. In keeping with my resolution the flower, flourishes and banner all used bits from my scrap pile.

Glad you're here, Sue...since your card is GORGEOUS! Those flowers are beautifully and creatively done. Love the shades of today's colors that you used on the white.

Wow this is gorgeous! Love the idea of embossing a design before die cutting the flowers! Using that same design in the background is such a wonderfully beautiful effect!
