The Flower Challenge #104 Reminder

How were you inspired by these colors?  Have you entered a card in The Flower Challenge #104?  Maybe you have another up your sleeve!  Here's a reminder of those gorgeous colors:

 

Another card made during my playtime with Marcia using her Waffle Flower Crafts Flower Focal die, cut from Bristol Smooth cardstock that I brought home for inking...


I wanted to keep it CAS so I embossed the card panel using watercolor paper and a
SSS Filigree Message Rounded Rectangle die that has been in my 
stash for ages!  You may have seen this sentiment many times over - it's
such a pretty one from Alex Syberia's Spring Garden set.

Okay, enough about my card - let's go see what my teammates have made, shall we?  It's always a treat!

The embossed watercolour panel is to die for I really must give that a go as I have tons of watercolour paper and never use it. It gives such a beautiful soft texture. Your blooms are heavenly and work perfectly with that super sentiment.

So pretty with just a little embossing and lightly colored flowers, Michele.

Every detail on your card is simply delightful, Michele! The flowers are inked beautifully and the embossed background is subtle; I love it on the watercolor paper. I have the die (I think?) and I'd never thought to use it like that. Thanks for leading the way with your ingenuity, my friend!
