Deciding to go for a floral card was a pretty easy decision given these colors. I chose Stippled Blossoms and did lots of 1st, 2nd and 3rd generation stamping and fussy cutting to come up with this card:
The two darker roses were stamped using Raspberry Ripple stamped off twice for the background and full strength for the highlights. The lighter rose was stamped using Pretty in Pink full strength for the background and Raspberry Ripple stamped off twice for the highlights.
Thanks for looking. Head on over to Create with Connie & Mary to see what the rest of the challenge team has come up with.

Gorgeous! I especially like how you used 2 ink colors on your flowers to make the one in the front stand out!
Love the effect the stamping-off gives to the flowers. Adds auch beautiful highlights! Gorgeous card!
All that stamping and cutting were worth it.....this is one stunner of a card!
