Awash With Flowers

This is another stamp set I just loved as soon as I saw it in the new catalogue, I'm sure there will be a lot more posts featuring this one in the near future!

My card again covers 2 challenges,
Stampin Royalty colour challenge and Makeesha's sketch (again)

I wasn't too sure about these colours together, but then I saw Alisa Tilsner's gorgeous card & thought I could make the colour combo work...here's my attempt...
another 6" square...


I stamped the Concord Crush layer with the solid flower stamp (doesn't show up to well in the photo) One flower has been popped up with dimensionals & more pearls to finish off.(more of these will be on my next order if I keep this up! see previous posts...)

I stitched around all of the panels on my sewing machine with some turquoise thread and used the scallop border punch on the choc chip panel (layered with concord crush & so saffron ribbon)
Thanks for stopping by xx
the fine print:
Cardstock-So Saffron, Choc Chip, Concord Crush, watercolour paper
Stamp sets- Awash with Flowers, Curly Cute
Ink- Tempting Turquoise, So Saffron, black StazOn
Other- So Saffron ribbon, aqua painter, scallop border punch, pearls, dimensionals
