I created this card for two challenges: To honor Sue as Queen for the Day! Yay Sue. I used this card of her's as my inspiration. I used four designer papers for the mix n' match challenge. I changed the colors from Sue's card, of course by using these papers. I applied them to the Cameo Coral mat to bring out that lovely shade in the rose and then added the leaves which are cut/embossed with Spellbinders Foliage, then I ran it through with the Textile Texture embossing folder before matting onto the Basic Gray layer. I moved the leaves and the oval shaped sentiment up from where Sue had her's just so I wouldn't cover the lovely rose on the dp. I stamped the sentiment using Basic Gray ink onto the one patter of designer paper before cutting/embossing with Spellbinders oval and matting with the gray scalloped oval and popping up.
Thanks for looking.
