Raspberry Suite Color Challenge #15

I am so glad to be back and creating! I used 4 PTI stamp sets on this card - all new goodies from CHA!

The stamp set Nicholle designed for CHA is divine! I LOVE flowers and these are so beautiful. I clear embossed over the flowers to give them some shine. I made a border with the Polka Dot Basics II set and embossed with my favorite ZING embossing powder in Leaf. I also used the same ZING and Versamark for the Fancy Flourish. The sentiment is from the Floral Fusion set. The ribbon is from my stash. The scallop punch is from Stampin' Up and I stamped it with Background Basic Text Style. I really liked that look.

I double layered the one flower that was cut out of PTI Berry Sorbet and clear embossed them both. The other two flowers were cut out out of PTI Hibiscus paper.

Here's the challenge from Dawn McVey! I hope you like my card. I really enjoyed making it but now I have to go clean all of the stamps I used and put everything away!!!
