Well, WHAT a COLOR COMBO!!! Thank you ladies for a FUN challenge! I was a little nervous, but I thought my "Fifth Avenue Floral" stamp set COULDN'T steer me wrong! I'm sure we'll see a lot of this stamp in the gallery today!!
I did try the base of my card in Pretty in Pink and didn't like it. Then I put it against CHerry CObbler and again... wasn't singing to me! So when i looked outside and saw all this SNOW coming down, I thought I should stick this beautiful rose on some white cardstock and let it SPEAK for itself!!
Cherry Cobbler, Melon Mambo and Pretty in Pink make for one BEAUTIFUL rose!! Thank you ladies! I'd have to say, that when I first tried this I thought there was NO WAY I'd use this combo again! But after the way my flower came out this morning, I'd say I'm going to remember this combo and how beautiful it really is!!
I HAD to have a little bit of the dessert!! C'mon PEARLS!! I HAD to!!
Hope you like my CAS!

Jenna, I just love how you got such shading and light areas on your gorgeous flower - it was a stroke of genius to have it off the edge of your card - really stunning against the white - I know what you mean, sometimes you just have to try different stuff and see what "sings" or "flies"!!! Well, this sure did!!!!
