I haven't played in a CAS challenge in forever! I finally made some time and this week's challenge was to focus on the background. I've seen several cards in the gallery and on Pinterest that have this kind of watercolor stripes background. I just loved it and had to try.
I kept the flowers black and white with minimal embellishments to keep the bg the focus.

I would never have thought to leave the images stamped in black and white. It adds such an elegance to your card. I must try to make a card like this. Thanks for the idea.
