Flowers, Flowers, Flowers

Challenges with flowers are popping up like flowers!  I unfortunately needed a Sympathy card and I found some unusual brownish red colored pattern paper and some outrageous lime colored patterned paper that I thought would work together... now as I write this, I'm thinking - WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?  Lime for a sympathy card?  I think it works though.

I'm entering this card in three challenges listed below with those all important links too.  I chose cream color card stock (so much more soothing than white) to work with.  I stamped and embossed the flowers and cut them out (Hero Arts Hand Drawn Flower - CG285) and then stamped it on the card stock in Distress Ink Antique Linen, one of my all time favorites and most frequently used Distress Inks.  I smeared Glossy Accents in the center of the large flower and added yellow seed beads (I promise to take another photo when the sun is out on that center flower).  I used Black Enamel Accents on the center of the little lime green flower and added some pearls around the card.  Right now, I'm falling into bed... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
