Jeanne is our delightful hostess for this week's Color Challenge CC872. She has selected four colors this week, Fresh Freesia, Just Jade, Misty Moonlight, and Soft Sea Foam with the Dessert Option of 'Anything Goes'!
My design this week was created using the new Blessings of Home Bundle. The larger flowers were colored first by using Soft Sea Foam followed with Misty Moonlight. The leaves were colored with Soft Sea Foam and Just Jade. I exercised my dessert option by using an additional color, So Saffron for the flower centers. An embossed panel of vellum was layered over the top of the Soft Sea Foam background panel.
Please join us in this week's challenge, we will be looking forward to viewing your creative take.

Stunning floral arrangement. Beautiful use of the challenge colors. Using the yellow as the dessert option was brilliant. The embossed vellum is beautiful. Sweet sentiment. Fabulous card.

I love the depth you achieved with your coloring. It's so dramatic, even with these softer colors. I use that embossing folder all the time but have never done it with vellum - it's such a beautiful look. I'll have to add that to my box of tricks...
LeAnn, this is a gorgeous card. I love the soft pattern of your background and how it highlights your beautiful floral arrangement and sentiment layer. The dark denim ribbon matches the dark blue in the flowers and is the perfect finishing touch!
