OLW - Just For You

A short post with my card for One Layer Wednesday.  Susan provided us with a beautiful photo she purloined (stole as she put it) from Pinterest to use as inspiration.  There are many different directions you could go in with the photo, but I chose to focus on the colors.  The main colors in the photo are yellow, green, and white.  But one thing I noticed was the centers of some of the flowers were a dark sort of burgundy color which provided a nice contrast.   So when I put together my card I used a burgundy colored ink for the sentiment to provide that same bit of contrast. 



Thanks for taking a peek...

Supplies:  Cardstock:  PTI white, Stamps:  Stampin Up!, Ink:  SU! Pear Pizzazz and Bravo Burgundy, Memento Dandelion

I just love this card Rosie. I love the way you popped the flowers. I am a bit new to the CAS style, and wondered if popping like this is allowed. I am glad to see it in your beautiful work!
