Of course the card didn't turn out quite like I expected, but I think it turned out ok nonetheless.
I changed the colors to Not Quite Navy, Basic Gray, and Naturals Ivory. I made the central image smaller and offset the sentiment.
I LOVED how Kokirose clear embossed the cheesecloth background over her image. That was the main reason I chose this card to CASE. Unfortunately, I accidentally grabbed Iridescent Ice embossing powder instead of clear, so it doesn't show up quite as nice. :-(
Instead of white embossed flowers in the background, I silver embossed them and then sponged around the edges in Not Quite Navy ink.
The edges of the Basic Gray card stock are edged with silver from the Zig Painty.
I didn't have blue ribbon, so I ran vanilla ribbon through my Not Quite Navy ink pad to make it blue.
I tried to take a shot at an angle so you could see how I decorated the inside to match.
Behind the card is the envelope I also stamped to match.
I had fun doing this challenge!!!! Thanks for the great inspiration, Kokirose!!!

Wow - your card turned out beautiful. I love the colour combo you chose, the silver embossed flowers on the back panel. Like the silver hardware and sentiment.
Congrats on your first FS challenge.
Thank you so much for playing along today.
