I tried out different ideas but nothing seemed appealing to me, so I went with a CAS deconstructed and minimalist interpretation of the sketch. Jan, I apologize if I've gotten a little loose in my interpretation lol!
I was looking through my floral stamp sets and saw this image that would fit across the entire panel, letting the flowers represent the circle. It was stamped, stenciled and die cut. The sentiment is from the same stamp set.
For the background, I wanted some detailed embossing for all the white space and decided to use a tile motif embossing folder. It was trimmed down slightly before adhering to the card base. The flowers were added with foam tape, and I finished things off with some pretty green gems that matched the leaves.
What are you inspired to make with Jan's fabulous sketch? I encourage you to pop over to the challenge and see the variety of designs my talented teammates came up with. The challenge remains open until 3pm EDT Friday, August 1st. I hope to see your card in the gallery this week!
Take care!

Stef, I love your interpretation of the sketch! The embossed background is so pretty. All that white just makes those pretty pin flowers pop!
Beautiful card Stef. Love the pretty flowers and embossed background. I think the flowers and leaves are a great representation of the elements on the sketch
Beautiful, Stef! The embossed card base is a lovely backdrop for the perfectly colored flowers. I LOVE all of the white space. Have a wonderful week!
That's such a pretty EF and those pink blooms were the perfect topper for it! Wonderful card, Stef!
I do love this card, Stef. At heart, I am a CAS girl so understand the pull of a decontructed and minimalist interpretation. The striking floral and the pretty patterned card front work well together. :-)
Stef... as always, simply elegant. You have such an amazing style...so love it.
Stunning card! Those florals against the embossed background are just beautiful! Thank you for my birthday card too! It came in time! and I really enjoyed it!
Beautiful flowers, beautiful card, congrats 😊💐 happy day
I'm not sure what I love most Stef - those pretty pastel flowers or that beautiful embossed background. Together they make for a stunning combination!
