I made this card for today's Color Challenge, CC571. SU Wisteria Wonder, Pool Party, and Pear Pizzazz is the color combination for the challenge.
I simply covered the floral part of the Hydrangea stamp from the SU Because I Care Stamp Set with Wisteria Wonder and Pool Party ink, and the stem and leaves with Pear Pizzazz. I stamped the image onto SU Whisper White CS and embellished it with three petals images.
I used the Pool Party CS to cut out a stitched rectangle mat and adhered the image piece to that. Before adhering the mat and image piece to the Whisper White card base, I embossed it with the Memory Keepers EF.
Enjoy and TFL!

Love the embossing behind the flower. This is such the perfect flower for these colors. I don't know why I didn't think of it. Your design is beautiful!

Oh Bev, this is beautiful! Your hydrangea looks so good with the mix of wisteria wonder and pool party in the petals. I love your choice of embossing folder also and the adding a couple petals around the image. Gorgeous!
