Becky has chosen such pretty colours this week - Soft Suede, Soft Sky, Pear Pizzaz & Crisp Cantaloupe with dessert to make a feminine card. I have also made this for this week's Queen, Janine (Jay_Bee), who not only has a lovely gallery of cards, but is always generous with her comments. The card of Janine's I chose to CASE -
My layout is similar to Janine's using Embrace Life stamp set. I stamped flowers, coloured with copics, fussy cut, and added small pearls to their centres. I raised the cantaloupe flowers, using dimensionals. Made my card a birthday card and added the corner motifs. In hindsight I should have coloured the pear leaves but, after finishing card, didn't trust myself to colour them then!!
TFL! I hope you are enjoying your week in the spotlight, Janine!

Those are some gorgeous flowers and this card is lovely! I think leaving the leaves like this works well! What a great way to case our Queen. Hugz!

I like that you didn't color the leaves Sue. This way there is more focus on your pretty flowers. I like the way you colored them and blended in the soft suede. Very lovely, and nice of your to include Janine in your card.

Beautifully done, Sue, and a great card to honor Janine. I like your Embrace Life flowers and see that I need to use mine more. I think that leaves give this a very airy and light feel just as they are. Definitely feminine and gorgeous!
