Refreshing Flower - ColourQ #138



This is my first time doing a ColourQ challenge.   I really love the cards they have posted and the inspiration to use color combinations that I normally wouldn't reach for on my own.   



I used Stampin' Up DSP and cardstock.   The DSP is from this past Spring's Occasions mini catalog.   The greeting is also from Stampin Up (One of a Kind).  I used the Stampin' Up flower petal punch to create the large petals.   The inside petals are punched with two Marvy Uchida punches that I've had for ages.   The leaves and border are punched with Martha Stewart punches.   I cut the label using a Spellbinder's die.  I cut two extra shapes and cut them up to make the background layer.   The seam binding ribbon is from Stampin' Up.  I added a pearl to the center of the flower and used my Crop-A-Dial Corner Chomper by We R Memory Keepers. Almost forgot one more thing.   I used an Impression Obsession background stamp to stamp the stripes on the Crumb Cake card base.
