A Great Big Hello

Happy Easter!!  And a great big "hello"!!  It's my turn to share my pick of the week for The House That Stamps Built.  I'm continuing on in my "Inspired By Pinterest"  series.  My card today was inspired by this card:
MIX87 Happy Day
I just loved how the white embossing popped with the ink blended leaves.  Of course, I had to use some of my favorite Flower Power Separates images!  I stamped the flowers (Mum Outline) and leaves (Leaf Outline, small) with versamark and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  Then I use some ink blending brushes to blend on some yellow and pink for the flowers and green for the leaves.  I added two sentiments from the "Hello Cling Set" and finished everything off with some white pearls.
I LOVE coloring, and I love coloring all of the flower images in the Flower Power Separates, but sometimes it takes a long time.  This is a nice, quick, easy way to add color to your card without having to actually color.

Supplies:
Stamps: Repeat Impressions "Flower Power Separates: Mum Outline and Leaf Outline, Small" and "Hello Cling Set"
Dies: MFT "Blueprints 13" stitched rectangle
Inks: PTI "Berry Sorbet", "Lemon Tart" and "New Leaf"; MFT "Gravel Gray"; SU! "Basic Black"
