SO simple but SO striking! I absolutely LOVE the colors!! How does she do that where she just knows what colors will look great together?!! I never would have chosen these 4 colors (Pale Peony, Hibiscus Burst, Berry Sorbet, & Melon Berry) to go together, but they totally work! I wanted to completely CASE Dawn's card, but thought I should at least try to put my own spin on it! So I kept mine simple too, used the same color cardstock, used the Mighty Bloom cover plate die, and flipped mine upside down, and came up with this:
Very similar, but just enough of my own spin on it. I still can't get over how perfect all those colors are together...love, love, LOVE!! My sentiment is from Winter Woods, and I also added a rainstone to the center of the bloom.

Gorgeous! I, too, love the colors, and your take on the inspiration is great!
ReplyDeleteMarcia, you did an AMAZING job remaking Dawns beautiful card.
ReplyDeleteYours is GORGEOUS!
Gorgeous card!
ReplyDeleteYes, very much your own and I love this beautiful card , Marcia!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card. I love Dahlias and this is great!
ReplyDeleteOh my! Yours is just as beautiful as Dawn's, and completely yours! Perfectly constructed, btw.
ReplyDeleteMarcia, your card is every bit as fabulous as Dawn's and I love that you made it your own. What a great ombre effect using these colors!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, Marcia. Lovely colors and design.
ReplyDeleteDawn's card caught my eye, too, & I was trying to decide if I "have" to have that cover plate, but oh my goodness--I'm in love with your version, Marcia! Now I've gotta get Pale Peony so I can use this color combo!
ReplyDeleteThat was my favourite card also, and you nailed it and made it your own. Love this, Marcia!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning, Marcia! You never disappoint, nor does Dawn as I picked one of her cards as well! Have a HAPPY day!
ReplyDeleteThis color combo is really lovely. I love your card - it is so striking with these colors.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done, Marcia! This card caught my eye right away~it's a total stunner :-)
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful. Love your take on that bold flower. You picked the perfect cover plate die to use.
ReplyDeleteVery elegant card! I like cards that have that classy look and yet simple. I love it and you did a great job of your take on the inspirational piece.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous take on Dawn's fabulous card! Your choice of that cover plate and rotation of the design perfect!
ReplyDeleteI was surprised when I saw Dawn's card using that color combo, too. However, it's lovely and so is your beautiful card, Marcia. I don't have either cover plate so guess I won't be CASEing this anytime soon.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. I love how you spaced out your leaves and that color combo is awesome! Great CAS card! I keep thinking about getting that cover plate. Will be adding it to my next order...thanks...lol!
