This is my second card for the WT463 challenge to use cool colors or warm colors. My earlier card was made for the warm colors since I live in Florida and our weather is warmer than 32 degrees. I decided that since this is my second challenge card I could cheat a little and make a cool colored card since our temps are very cold for us here in Florida at this time. LOL!
I used Susan's new Dahlia set to create this gorgeous flower. I used all white cardstock and colored the flower petals and leaves with PanPastel. I love, love, love this flower. I thought it would be perfect paired with the soft Belleek Inspired background. I still love Judy for introducing us to this technique for the technique lover's challenge a while back. I think this is so soft and pretty. It cheered me up just to make it.

This is such a gorgeous card Kittie!! I love the white embossed part. The flower is very special and pretty too. I'm putting this gorgeous card into my favorites.
This is just too pretty! It needs to be in a frame! Love your flower! -- so realistic! The frame is beautiful and the embossing is just lovely with the blush of pink in the bg!

I love your dahlia, Kittie! Because of you I have been buying Susan's dies and I'll be making them eventually. Thank you for your tutorials and your lovely card creations!
