Betty's color combos always make me think outside my box. This one was no exception. But I ended up having lots of fun with it. I bleached my leaves, and then embossed the posies on crumb cake card stock and cut them out and then ran the whole piece thru my Big Shot with the square lattice folder for some embedded embossing. This was lots of fun. I even had dessert with my home made dp in the background stamping the solid stamp from this great new set called Fabulous Florets which will be available in May. I did another card which will be posted on my blog tomorrow morning and I did it in poppy parade, and it's amazing how different the flowers look on these two cards. If you want to check out my blog, do it after 5:00 am tomorrow morning, and it's at www.karenbarberstamps.blogspot.com to see a totally different look with these cool new stamps!! Brand new beautiful flowers to work with - I can never get enough. Thanks for this awesome color challenge Betty that really got me thinking outside the box!! Happy Tuesday everyone!!

I MUST be getting aged myself ... I THOUGHT about what I wanted to say as a comment on this card, but it never made it out of my head, through my fingers and into your gallery! Sheesh!! I soooo love how you actually made a floral "scene" with the embedded embossing (and the bleaching is oh-so-gorgeous!)! You are one awesome stamper, girl (even if ya CAN'T remember the names of stuff ... join the club!)!!
