Now that I've got the circle cutter from SU, this old sketch challenge was a breeze! While I was it, I decided to tackle a really old color challenge, too. (Blushing Rose).
My card base is Blush Blossom. I stamped the top two-thirds of the base with the Canvas background stamp in Blush Blossom ink. The sentiment was stamped (with the aid of my Stamp-A-Ma-Jig) in Chocolate Chip ink.
I used my Circle Scissors Plus to cut out a 3.5" circle from Whisper White cs. On it I stamped the fern with Sage Shadow, the flower/stem-thing (very technical term) with Chocolate Chip and used the Rock & Roll technique on the flower (Blush Blossom and Rose Red). This is layered on a 3 3/4" Chocolate Chip circle. On a scrap piece of Whisper White cs, I stamped the dragonfly twice with Rose Red ink, cut them out and adhered one to the circle and the other by the sentiment with Mini Glue Dots. Their wings are folded up to appear in flight.
I really like the way this card turned out and can't wait to send it to someone special on their birthday. TFL - Regina
ETA: I spritzer Chocolate Chip ink on the Whisper White circle with the Spritzer and marker.

Oh, this is very nice. I espcially like the way you didn't use the BG stamp over the entire card base...you left room for the sentiment at the bottom. Very great idea. Nice card.
Hey, I have a birthday coming up! Am I special enough to get it? LOL
