Beautiful Bouquet

This sweet card was made for the WPlus9 Throwback Thursday Challenge using their Fresh Cut Flowers stamps and dies.

I created the bouquet and planted them in a pot cut from an old Quickutz die. I used a piece of scrap script paper from my stash for the background but found that it was too bold for my images so I machine stitched a piece of vellum over the top. The bouquet is attached to the vellum and the whole thing mounted to a piece of bright raspberry colored cardstock.
I couldn't decide on a sentiment so I left it as is. I kind of like it because you can really appreciate the pretty script paper in the background and this card can be for any occasion.

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
Word Art Wednesday
Simon Says Wednesday

Thanks so much for looking! Blessings~ Birgit
