Kristina's colour challenge kicked my butt into gear this week to get something posted.
The inspiration came from this photo from West Elm.
I didn't use any of the design elements as inspiration, but I did use most of the colours.
This card base is 41/4 by 51/2 Old Olive with the fold at the top. Then I have Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, and Very Vanilla layers each 1/4 of an inch smaller.
The image is stamped in both Close to Cocoa and Chocolate Chip to create a bit of a shadow.
The flowers are stamped with Taken with Teal, and I had some primas that fit with the colour and shape perfectly, so I added those too.
I used Stardust Stickles in the centres of all of the flowers (stamped, and primas). The ribbon is the 5/8 Old Olive grosgrain from Stampin Up. I wanted to include a sentiment, but It just didn't fit on the card.

Hi Tamara, I like your use of primas and stamped flowers together...a very nice effect.
Very pretty! Love what you did with the ribbon!
This is really pretty! I love the colours you pulled out of the inspiration piece.
p.s. Thanks for visiting my blog! I just wanted to say that I am in Canada, so high Canadian shipping is a norm, but that purchase was twice as much ... :)
I don't have that Baroque Stamp ... I love it though & your great card is just a reminder how fun it would be to use. TFS, Amy.
Just lovely!!!
What a beautiful card with Kristina's challenge!
Love the stamp set you chose with this challenge and the colors are amazing - beautiful card!
