Barbara has a lovely, warm, summery color combination for us this week: Calypso Coral + Mint Macaron + Pear Pizzazz. Dessert is Designer Series Paper but I guess I'm dieting right now. I mixed these colors up little with a pretty new rose set, Beautiful Friendship.
The larger pair of roses was stamped off (onto what became a second card) so that I could get a lighter rose, with the third rose stamped in full-strength Calypso Coral. Then I just got to know the stamp set a little better. by stamping around this trio adding leaves in Pear Pizzazz and smaller floret in Mint Macaron. I used one of the smaller dotted images to give the impression of greens grounding the roses.
A skinny Calypso Coral border with a textured Eyelet Lace corner make for a simple card sketch. A white flax ribbon plus a few subtle sequins finish off this card, which would be perfect for a wedding.

Chris, I am in love with this card! You have really shown how to take a few simple stamps and turn them into an elegant, lovely card. Your floral arrangement is stunning, and the big pretty bow is the perfect finishing touch!
