For my card I decided to use both the sketch and the beautiful inspiration photo. (Who wouldn't love to have a cake like that for their birthday???) I stamped the chevron image in VersaMark ink on white cardstock, applied white embossing powder and then heat set it. The white on white embossing is just barely visible so I have included a detail shot which shows the detail a little bit better . The flowers were stamped in dark pink, orange and yellow inks and then die cut using the matching dies. A black sequin was added to the center of each flower and then they were layered as you see. The sentiment finished things off and the piece adhered to a bright green card base. Not a super clever take on the challenge, but I really like how it turned out.
Thanks for stopping by...

Stunning card Rosie! Love those embossed chevrons and the three flowers...such a great FUSION card!
At first I did not see the white embossing until read about it. This is beautiful and bold. Bet its even prettier in person when you can see all the details. Love it!
Love the embossing you did with the chevrons...that is a good idea, maybe I can remember that sometime! Fabulous card, Rosie, and thank you for leaving a sweet comment on my blog! I am originally from Seattle, but now live in Oregon...my BFF lives in Maple Valley...and I take the train to Tacoma to visit her!
