I created this card for the color challenge today - Rich Razzleberry, Lucky Limeade, Daffodil Delight. I used a designer paper for the circle which were adhered to the Lucky Limeade card front which is embossed with the Spellbinders folder. I then cut/embossed the flower and tag from Daffodil Delight card stock and I used chalks for the centers and the leaves on the tag. The sentiment is stamped using Lucky Limeade ink. In case you can't read it, it says, "Hope Your Day blooms with Special Joy." I used foam dots to pop up some of the petals of the larger blossom. I added just a knot of organdy ribbon to the tag.
Thanks for looking.

Karen, how lovely! I like the subtle colorings in your circles and the main flower is so pretty with the soft chalk shading and the petals partially cut to give dimension. The overall embossing gives a wonderful texture.
Great card, Karen! Love the fun flower and dimensional petals! It looks like you and I had sunflowers on the brain--great minds! I like how you embossed the circles with the BG!
