Sunset Bouquet

 Hello All,

Today I will be playing along with The Paper PlayersTime Out Challenge, and The Color Throwdown. This card links to my last post meaning it was a discarded piece that was resurrected to make this delight. Here is my card for today, enjoy!

This card was one of the cards I discarded because the base flowers were stamped in a color that was much darker than intended. I set it aside and tried again with a lighter shade of gray. After brushing on the color I thought it was too blah so I added the floral details in white and black from the Altenew stamp set, Dainty Bouquet. 

I like the black acting as an accent or highlight color.
I think using the white and black dye inks was a good choice. 

The sentiment is extended from the main base of the card. 
It does however, it does fit comfortably into an A2 envelope.
