CARD: Breathtaking Bouquet

Good morning!!  Had a great day yesterday -- took time in my stamp room!  Stamped for several hours -- pure bliss!  I often turn to Stamp Challenges for inspiration, and yesterday was no exception!  This card was inspired by the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches and the colors at Color Throwdown:

I stamped the image first, in Tuxedo Black ink, the cut out a square using the Layering Squares Dies.  I colored the cut out square using Stampin' Blends (Flirty Flamingo, Seaside Spray & Night of Navy).  The colored squared is attached using Stampin' Dimensionals.  

I'm really happy with the way it turned out!!!  Here are the challenges I used:

Have a GREAT day!!
