Beautiful Bunch HSS189

Good morning and thanks for stopping by.  Todays card is for the color challenge over at Hand Stamped Sentiments.  I am in love with the new in colors, so I was excited to see three of them being used in the challenge.

 
I started with a base color of lost lagoon and layered with whisper white.  On top of that I cut out one striped scalloped in hello honey.  The beautiful bunch flowers are stamped in hello honey, lost lagoon and tangelo twist.  All three I stamped off some of the ink for a lighter background, then stamped the center design in the same color.  Each flower has a little pearl in the center.  I cut a strip of lost lagoon in color satin ribbon and attached across the bottom with glue dots.  I also cut a strip of the new venetian crochet ribbon and colored it in lost lagoon.  I just love how I can color it and make it what ever color I need.
 

 
On the inside, I stamped two flowers and shaded in the shape from the apothecary accents die and stamped my sentiment of "Let's Celebrate" from the Sumthin' Sumthin' stamp set. (same as the outside sentiment)

 
Again, thanks for stopping by to visit my blog and see my challenge card.  Don't forget to leave some "love", as I always enjoy reading your comments and come back tomorrow to see what I created for "Curtain Call".
