Play Date #96 Baby

I came across this fabulous color challenge @ The Play Date Cafe.  The colors for this weeks challenge (#96) are: mint, coral, and ivory.  When I saw these colors together, I instantly thought of Bo Bunny.  They have some new pattern paper that works this color challenge perfectly!

Here is the inspiration board:

Here is the card I made:

My card base is made from Cameo Coral card stock.  I used a scrap piece of Sage Shadow to mat the pattern paper.  I cut a banner from the Petal Cone die, and stamped the HB in Cameo Coral classic ink.  I added the little tag stamped with a brown Staz-On pigment ink.  I attached the tiny tag with a vintage trinket.   I added a scallop trim cut from First Edition DSP and used the tasteful trim die.  I added a chip board frame I had.  I sponged the edges of the frame and added some diamond glitter to it.  I also cut one blossom and attached it to the card front with some foam tape.  I added odd numbers of faux half-pearls and rhinestones to give the card some bling and elegance.  My final addition, I heat embossed the number '3' using Versa Mark and white embossing powder.  I sponged some Sahara Sand classic ink to help the '3' pop!
Thank you for looking!

This is so beautiful, Sharon! I love the sparkle on the frame behind the flower and all the little details. I had to look closely to see if the green paper had the edge or the text paper! Lovely card.
