Beautiful Blossoms Challenge Time!

 Hello!
Time for another monthly challenge at Beautiful Blossoms.

Here's the optional inspiration board, but any blooms will do as long as they are the focus of your project. Please see the complete rules right HERE.

And here is my inspiration make for ya'll.
Good friends of ours went and eloped, so of course I had to make them a card!
I went with various shades of pink Promarker coloring for the roses and green for the leaves, pink shades for the papers, and did an inlaid technique with the swirl heart die cut on front and back.

SUPPLIES LIST:
SU, Bazzill and Recollections card stocks
Avery Elle and My Favorite Things flower stamps and matching dies
Sizzix Bigz Swirly Heart die
Sweet N Sassy sentiment
Versamark ink
Ranger Gold embossing powder
Spellbinders Art Deco Fairmont die (inside)
Catherine Pooler ink (back)
Promarkers

 
At left is the inside with a sentiment I composed in PSE, printed out and cut with an Art Deco Fairmont die. At right is the back of the card. I used the swirly heart cut from the front's pink layer and the white inside from cutting the front's white swirly heart. When I cut the back dark pink layer, I used the heart inside of that on front. Confused? LOL I used die cut parts on both front and back, better? I got out my Lawn Fawn siggie stamp I used to use a lot and stamped it with Catherine Pooler Peppermint Scrub ink.

Last look.
Thanks for the visit today.
Come play with us in the challenge, flowers are always fun.
Enjoy!
