Very interesting sketch today! At first it seems simple, but those angles at the top and bottom got a little tricky when I wanted to add a narrow layer.
For my monochromatic card, I stamped the quote from Our Daily Bread designs, die cut it along w/ a ridged grey layer. They're attached to a labels 17 die cut stamped w/ a fancy label image. I used some stripe dp for my bg panel and used a Scor-Buddy to add some scored diagonal lines on the right card front.
The dahlia is a new EK Success punch. You punch a long line then roll it up to create the flower. I made a Faux Brad out of the grey for the flower center and added a few branches. The finished card is 5.5 x 4.25.
Thanks so much for looking! It'll be blogged in just a sec. The Write Stuff

Beautiful! The angles did get a bit tricky, in fact, I think I did them 3 times before I settled. I love the colours you used here and your photo staging is outstanding. Beautifully done.

You know it's no wonder you're one of my favorite stampers here at SCS, I am always amazed at your cards. All your tools worked perfectly to create this beauty, now I gotta find that label die, love the flower too and the partial embossing really finished off the design perfectly.
