I liked her layout, which I kept somewhat. I kinda rotated it. I used flowers, but changed the stamps. She used ink blending for her BG. I chose to use a stencil. I used die cuts for my sentiment mainly because I couldn't find any stamps appropriate for the occasion.
Another co-worker friend is getting another job. She had mentioned how she liked the pink flowers on a previous card for a different co-worker. I took that as a bit of a challenge to make her pink flowers. I love these Vintage Roses, but they can feel intimidating to me. I decided to make a whole bunch. Finally got an Altenew stencil.

Boy did I go down a rabbit hole following your link to the flower challenge! But I loved it! I didn't know there was that challenge. You have used these Altnew roses beautifully! The touch of stenciling for the BG is gorgeous! It's a beautiful color combo and the details are so soft and subtle. I love this!
