This whole card started with the flower... I wanted to try making a flower with the Mosaic punch, so I started with some Melon Mambo and Pink Pirouette. I had the pleasure of making this at my mom's house while I was visiting for a few days, and the Pink Pirouette scrap I grabbed was already embossed - how perfect!
I used the soon-to-be-retired Little Leaves sizzlet die to cut the leaves from Wild Wasabi. Last, a bit of Gorgeous Grunge splatters in the back in Daffodil Delight and my absolute favourite birthday sentiment from Bring on the Cake. I finished it off with a bit of faux stitching around the edges in white.
If you haven't checked out the retired list yet, I recommend swinging on over to Stampin' Up! and taking a peek!! If there's something you love - get it quick!
Check out the challenge this week:

Mission Accomplished! Your flower is just awesome and I never would have thought to use the mosaic, or even recognized it :) Love how you always think outside the box, pretty sure I couldn't rock that unexpected color combo like you did either, nice work!
