This is my card for CC705. Karen is our hostess and she chose berry burst, pool party and soft suede for her color trio. Dessert option this week is solid stamping.
Started my card by partially stenciling the background with a Heidi Swapp stencil and pool party ink.
Stamped my flowers using the flower patch set in berry burst ink and die cut with the matching stencils.
I stamped the leaves with mossy meadow (Stampin'-Up's new neutral),and of course,we are allowed neutrals to compliment the challenge colors. I stamped off a couple of times before stamping on the white cardstock.
Secured the flowers, stamped my sentiment and added a few sequins to complete my card.
That's my sample for this week. Hope you can play along with us this week. Karen has given us some fun colors to work with.

This is oh-so- pretty Mary! Your collage of flowers is perfect in these wonderful fall colors. I adore the stenciling you did in the corner to highlight these flowers with, and your sentiment is so very meaningful. What a wonderful card this is to showcase this week's colors by! ~Karen.

What a fabulous card design with the stenciled corner and offset cluster of flowers below! The stamped leaves surrounding the flowers just complete the picture. Gorgeous card Mary!

Love the way you continued to pick up the pool party by sponging a stencil on your bg panel, Mary! Beautiful rich blooms with pretty accents to make them shine~
