Color Challenge with dessert of flowers. I did use a little neutral green because flowers need leaves.
This is a new-to-me stamp set that seemed like a good one for these colors; I used it for the first time today. On watercolor paper, I stamped the image in Night of Navy and VersaMark and then heat embossed in clear. I had limited supplies in the two In Colors, so I used what I had. The image was watercolored with markers and ink pads. For the sentiment, I heat embossed in white on Navy CS and punched out to fit the center opening. I made two cards with a little different coloring. Matted both images on Rococo Rose, layered on gingham and a navy card base. Applied Wink of Stella to the flowers, added a few faceted dots and tied on some fiber from my stash.
Thanks for looking!

So pretty, Diane! These are wonderful using the challenge colors. And thanks for drawing my attention to the font of the elementary elegance sentiment. I always regretted not getting the accent blooms stamp set and love how you used it here.
