Afternoon all, hope you're well!
This is my card for this week's http://simplylessismoore.blogspot.com/ challenge. The theme is to use pastel.
I'm later than usual with this one and have to admit to struggling a bit with it. First I had a loss of mojo - I just couldn't think of what to do, and then when I decided, I just couldn't get the positioning of the petals right. I've chucked away 3 or 4 pieces of card. I nearly threw in the towel!
The stamp set I used is Stamping Up's Pick a Petal - stamped in Versacolour Orchid and black for the outline stamp.
The sentiment is also Stampin Up.
I used my Scor Pal to emboss the lines around the edge of the card and a saucer to create the stem of the flower.
I just have to share this with you.
I was lucky enought to win last week's charismacardz challenge for this card, and here's what a won:

Six fabulous stamps from the digistampboutique. Aren't the fab! I'm dead chuffed as I love Sally'Ann's images. Can't wait to have a play with them.
Bye for now, and thanks for stopping by.
