It’s Thursday and time for our Create with Stamping Friends challenge! We have a pretty color challenge for you!

SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL
The flowers in this set are so pretty and open so you can use any color! The flowers on this card remind me of the African Violets my grandmother used to grow. I still have one of hers that just blooms its’ head off several times a year…it likes the sun in my sunroom!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Cloud Cover cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Highland Heather cardstock was added on top.
- The 3-3/4 x 5 piece of Nature’s Walk DSP was added on top.
- The Everyday Arches was cut with the Die from Very Vanilla cardstock and stamped with the Simply Beautiful greeting across the top. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Three of the flowers and two sets of leaves were stamped with Memento Black Ink on Very Vanilla cardstock and colored with Cloud Cover and Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends. They were cut with the Dies and added to the arch with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The Three Banner Punch was punched from Highland Heather cardstock and cut in half, then tucked under the arch on the right side.
- A trio of large Vintage Pearls were added to the centers of the flowers.
