Awash with Flowers Spring Card

Today is a drizzly, gloomy day but this card has brightened my morning!  I knew I wanted to make a card with this "two-step stamping" set, Awash with Flowers, but not do the two-step stamping!  I just wanted to stamp the outline in Stazon Black ink and then color in.  It's nice to have the option with this set!  Two different looks!

I thought I would use some of the Sweet Pea Designer Paper #117161 in the Occasions Mini, so then pulled out some Pretty in Pink card stock to coordinate.  But I also found a scrap of Whisper White, already embossed with the Stampin' Up! Perfect Polka Dots Textured Impressions Folder #117335.  Both scraps were rather narrow so I decided to make a 6"x3" card.  I stamped the flower from "Awash with Flowers", colored in with Watercolor Crayons, and cut out with my Paper Snips scissors #103579.  I added a little sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes #115370.  I considered some other embellishments, but had to stop myself!  The card looked fine being simple. Sometimes you have to know when to stop!
