In the Garden with all the NEW In Colors

I started this card focusing on Stampin Up Only Challenge #176--Out in the Garden.  After I had chosen my stamp set and begun thinking about the design, I realized this would work perfectly with the 2017-2019 In Colors which would make it perfect for FabFri 114 as well.   I'm always excited when one card fits more than one Challenge.  Working on this card also inspired ideas for other cards, so keep a watch on this blog and see what else I will be creating in the near future.  You can follow by email so you don't miss a post.
Here's how I used the 2017-2019 In Colors:\
Fresh Fig--Card Base
Berry Burst--Ink for sentiment and flower on front and inside of card
Tranquil Tide--Floral thinlit
Powder Pink--Flowers and buds on floral stem
Lemon Lime Twist--stamped floral stem



















I didn't feel like the card was finished until I added some rhinestones to the floral stem.  Gotta have some bling!
