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

Will you just look at this card, my friend. I totally agree ~ those flowers are fabulous. Love how you brought what I considered to be difficult colors together so beautifully. What a sweet card. A winner for sure, my friend.

You must have had the Twilight Zone theme running through your head when you saw the sketch challenge, lol!!! This is gorgeous, Terri, and I love what you've done with that stamp set! It's been on my wish list, so I think this card is going to force me to go shopping! Thanks for the great inspiration.
