So many great colors to play with...Love it! Here is my card:
For this card, I used SSS Bouquet of Flowers stencil, and masked the flower on the left to create a little dimension. I inked this flower with Hero Arts Orange Soda, Butter Bar and Soft Vanilla to create a gradient, and inked the other flower with just Butter Bar. I used SSS Smoke ink for the dots inside this flower, and HA Green Hills ink for the stems and leaves. For the sentiment, I used the SSS/Mama Elephant Exclusive set called Summer Garden (stamped in black), and added a few DIY enamel dots in clear and gray. I mounted this panel on to a Steel Gray (MFT) card base, and that was it! I surprised myself by using all of the colors from the inspiration photo, too!
And...did I mention that there are some really amazing prizes for the winners in the challenges? For this challenge, the prize is a set of the six, brand new, Simon Says Stamp inks, which were released on Monday at the start of STAMPtember! I hope you'll have a chance over the next two weeks to check out the challenge in the SSS Flickr Group and play along!

Well done Barb notice those enamel dots appearing again. Still haven't been able to try them out!
Great card for this challenge, I love how the stencil makes these softer than a stamp but still a great focal point--good luck!
