Bright & Cheery for FMS #130

At the last minute I decided to create a card for this week's FMS Sketch Challenge.

A clean and simple sketch.  I also was inspired by the following color palette that I found on Pinterest.

I thought the bright pink flowers against the Turquoise Blue was stunning.

So I grabbed Tempting Turquoise, 3 1/4" x 4 1/4", and Baja Breeze (retired SU color) 3 1/8" x 4" and layered them.  The Whisper White piece is 2 5/8" x 3 1/2" and stamped the Dahlia from Regarding Dahlias stamp set in Melon Mambo.  Using my Blender Pen I added dimension with Pink Pirouette ink.

The ribbon is Blushing Bride Chevron ribbon.

I did not achieve what I was truly envisioning as the blues are not quite right. 

You can see that I lined the envelope in Tempting Turquoise and then decorated the outside of the envelope with another Dahlia.  I adore this flower, it is just so happy!

This is a quick and easy card I hope you are inspired to get your paper and ink out and make something beautiful today.
