Mixed Bouquet For You

Hello!  I have been playing with the  Inspiration Palette challenge at The House That Stamps Built which is a cross between a photo challenge and a color challenge.  I was attempting to use both the photo and colors in my card but I ended up using only 5 of the colors....somehow I thought there was pink in the palette but when posted this I realized it was orange instead.  But I think I still have enough elements for the card to qualify for the challenge.  I created the bouquet by combing 2 Repeat Impressions stamps-Sunflower and Tulip Bouquet- because I wanted a sunflower inspired by the photo.  I stamped the images with some masking involved using Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with  Copics.  I trimmed the image with a Spellbinders die and adhered to a Green Mat and then to a Layer of Pink CS(should have been orange) that was embossed with Cuttlebug Gingham EF. Attached this to a White card base.  Stamped a Gina K Design stamp to finish.   To complete the card I added some Clear Rhinestones that I colored with copics to match the flowers.  I also found the gem of a pink flower in my stash which I think was a great touch in the bouquet.  Added  a yellow glitter dome to the center of the flower.  

Challenges:

The House That Stamps Built: Inspiration Palette Challenge A2119 shown below

Double D Challenges:  Pearls, Gems, Rhinestones. Used rhinestones and gems.

Simon Wednesday Challenge: Simon says anything goes. 

As You Like It Challenge: Favorite way to add text. I like to add text with stamps especially using my Misti for best results.  Stamps are much quicker and easier for me and I can also heat emboss the sentiments.

Have a great day! I love reading your comments. Theresa
