A Floral Card for LNS Challenge

Today I am sharing a card that is different from what I normally make.  I did a card embossed with Manhattan Flower Embossing Folder then water colored. 



I wanted a card that was soft and pretty, also quick to put together.  This card fit the bill.  I used water color paper so I could get the soft look that I wanted.  I colored in the roses with my aqua painter and Pretty In Pink re-inker.  I used Bashful Blue with the aqua painter for the background as well.  I added in retired Pretty In Pink 7/8" Organza Ribbon with the greeting over it.  I cut out a small Window framelit in Bashful Blue then added a Pretty in Pink Heart punch out and the Anniversary greeting.  I had first thought about just stamping a greeting in the blank area at the top, but I liked having more dimension to the card with the ribbon and greeting at the bottom.  I enjoyed making this card, definitely different than my usual design!  I have more floral cards planned, check back to see what I come up with!!

If it doesn't move...stamp it!!!
