It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. Such a soft color combination to inspire you this week!

IRRESISTIBLE BLOOMS
I really liked using the Gray Granite Ink for the outline of the flowers. Since the outline is a bolder width, the lighter color softened it a bit!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Pale Papaya cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- Gray Granite cardstock was cut with the Irresistible Blooms Dies, then adhered across a 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Basic White cardstock. It was adhered with Monoadhesive Glue to the front towards the bottom.
- The greeting was stamped with Soft Succulent Ink on the front.
- The large and small flowers were stamped with Gray Granite Ink and the leaves with Soft Succulent Ink on scrap Basic White cardstock, then cut with the Irresistible Blooms Dies.
- The flowers were colored with Pale Papaya Combo and leaves with Soft Succulent Combo Blends. They were added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- A trio of In Color Opal Rounds (three medium, three small) were added to each of the centers of the flowers for a little sparkle!

Again, I really love this color combination! Go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary
