Happy Little Stampers June CASE the Designer Challenge

It's the first of June, well it is in Ausralia, anyway.  And since that's where our Happy Little Stampers Headquarters is located, that means it's time for the June CASE the Designer challenge.
This month, we're CASing the ever talented Rahmat Gouse.  Just look at her fun design for a card this month:
Here's my take on her card:
I went with a similar style background in silver, but mine is a piece of design paper that I found in my stash.  I thought it would work perfectly for CASing her card and I think I was right.  I used Altenew's Beautiful Day set and stamped it using their coordinating color cubes.  I'm really enjoying these coordinating color cubes as all the work of matching colors is done for me.  On this card I used the Red Sunset and Green Fields sets of color.  I heat embossed the outline of the flower and leaves in silver, like Rahmat did.  I also added the silver embossed sentiment banner, but overlayed the vellum on a banner of white card stock as well.  

I enjoyed making this card so much that I made another card using the Cool Summer Night colors.

Be sure to hop on over to the Happy Little Stampers Blog to see all the great cards from the design team and join in on the fun.  
Thanks so much for stopping by!  Blessings~ Birgit

These are so beautiful Birgit and I agree that the background paper is perfect on them. I've not yet tried the layered flowers but you are inspiring me to have a go! What a great CASE.
