I really liked this challenge! Unfortunately, for me, 'really like' does NOT translate into 'knocked it out of the park'. Oh well...the greenery by itself, on top of the ribbon, needed a solid anchor. Enter the suede flourish. Needless to say, I'm underwhelmed. That being said, the most valuable thing I'm learning as I go along, the REAL sign that you're progressing is consistency. At least I HOPE that's the case! If not, please do NOT tell me. Thanks for the challenge and I DO love this color combo!!!

I think this is gorgeous! I love the leaves with the flourish...very eye catching and a lovely foil to the flowers!

After reading the previous comments, I hope you're now overwhelmed - or may be just whelmed, LOL! (Why is there no such thing as 'whelmed'? - according to my dd) This is a beautiful card, Carmen, the elements go so well together, love the stamped image, the die-cut leaves and flourish, and the sweet bow!
