This is for today's color challenge which was to use close to cocoa, certainly celery, blush blossom and optional cameo coral and white. I finally got to ink up the new Greenhouse Garden stamp set and can I tell you, I'm in love! These stamps make THE most dimensional, realistic looking flowers ever! It is my new favorite set. I think I'm going to be using it quite a bit! The flowers are all 2 step stamped using blush blossom for the base and either cocoa, celery or coral for the centers. I used a tone-on-tone with certainly celery to stamp just the center of the flower on the celery cardstock. I really enjoyed today's colors. Thanks for the great combo Suzy. TFL

Terri, you are so right. What fantastic flowers, I will have to check those out for sure. I love the way that the 2-steps show off the blooms perfectly. I also really love the look of your stamped bg paper. Beautiful work on this little gem...
