My SC192 and CC182 monochromatic birthday card using the new "Eastern Blooms" from the Fall/Winter catty. I also used the new Hawaii Papaya DP as this is for my twin sister Margie, who lives in Makaha, Oahu with her DH. This card took on a life of its own as I just could not stop adding embellishments and ended up using almost the entire stamp set. I did use Hugs and Wishes for the birthday sentiment. The Make a Brad worked so well with the cutout large bloom. All the blooms were cut out and attached with dimensional tape. The different size pearls were from Michael's and a gift from my stamping DD Jeani.
I love how the DP and "Eastern Blooms" stamp set go so well together. I thought the sketch challenge and monochromatic colors were perfect too. Enjoy... and TFL
