I had fun using a stencil and stamp set from Pinkfresh Studio called Floral Focus and came up with this card...
I started by stenciling the flowers and leaves with Sea Glass, Turquoise Sea, Jelly Bean Green, & Fresh Asparagus inks (Gina K) for my background. Next I embossed just one of the flowers from the background stamp in silver, and then laid the stencils over it to color the flower.
After fussy cutting the flower out, I adhered it to the background with foam tape to add some dimension. The sentiment is a die cut from MB called Birthday Mail Posh Script...I have a few of these Posh Script sentiment dies from MB and LOVE them!! I felt like it still needed something so I added Distress Glitter to the veins in the leaves, and then finished off with a few Turquoise Gems and Silver Pearls from Pinkfresh Studios. This card sparkles BIG TIME in real life and will be perfect to celebrate someone's special day!

Celebration on a card and such a beautiful and eye catching card Marcia x. Fabulous colours and a real WOW card x.
Just love your silver embossed outline on just one of the flowers, Marcia - such a pretty focal point!
Turquoise flowers are seldom found in nature, we know - but you sure could give Mother Nature a lesson on how beautifully it works! Imagine a garden bed full of these! A card full is pretty wonderful, too, Marcia!
Thanks for playing! xx

The popped up flower looks wonderful on the stenciled background flowers, Marcia. I love the added shine and embellishments.
Oops. I forgot to say thanks for sharing your card with us at The Flower Challenge.
These flowers are perfect for the turquoise challenge, Marcia! So pretty with the bit of sparkle and dimension!
Wowee, this is beautiful! I love this to bits, Marcia. The single bloom popped up from the others is eye catching and draws you right in to the rest of the fabulousness you've created!
STUNNING card Marcia! LOVE your turquoise stenciled flowers and one fussy-cut with silver embossing. Lovely design, gorgeous colours. The glitter on the leaves and those beautiful drops are perfect finishing touches. Thanks for joining us at The Flower Challenge! xx
The turquoise is fabulous with the silver embossing.
I love the turquoise and silver together. This is stunning my friend!
