Simon Says & Colour Q

I had to make at least one card today using the goodies that I won from Virginia's Challenge!  [You can see photo of goodies I received HERE].

I found my colors from ColourQ 341, and since I used a Simon Says stamp set, Many Thanks, I entered this into the Simon Says Monday Challenge; embossing, along with the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge; flowers.

I started with a water colored background, went on to use embossing paste with a stencil, and white embossed my sentiment.  It needed something more, so I stamped the flowers.  Seeing this in a photo, I have to say.... not one of my favorites. :(

Oh I do like it! I think it's really good to do something different. I like all the different shades of pink, and it's one of my least favourite colours. I love the embossing and the background panel in particular. Xx
