I used colors for The Paper Players Challenge, the sketch by Verena for Freshly Made Sketches and added embellishments which qualifies it for The Flower Challenge. The background was stenciled with Papertrey Ink's newly released In the Meadow stencil collection.
I layered vellum behind the heart then popped it up with foam tape for added dimension. The sentiment was stamped with a dark plum color though it appears black in the photo. Corners of the card were rounded using a corner chomper. I forget to use this tool but like the way it softens the look.

Wow, Wanda! This is gorgeous! I am at a loss for words. The stenciled flowers truly show off the challenge colors perfectly. Thank you for playing with The Paper Players this week!
This is gorgeous, Wanda! I love the combination of the bold colours with the soft touches of the vellum and the rounded corners. Just beautiful! Thanks for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
You've used the challenge colors so beautifully, Wanda! The stencil certainly looks more like watercoloring and I love that sweet heart with the vellum backer, along with just the right amount of embellishments. Thank you so much for playing along with both the Paper Players and The Flower Challenge!
Wanda, this is gorgeous! I love this stencil. It created the perfect background using the color combo. The vellum behind the heart softens the look and the rounded corners are so lovely! SO happy you joined my Color Challenge at The Paper Players this week!
I know I commented on IG about this card Wanda, but had to stop by your blog on my laptop so I could get a better look at this GORGEOUS card! I've been having fun playing with this stencil set too, but have used more muted colors...I absolutely LOVE your bold & bright reds and oranges...STUNNING!!! Thanks so much for sharing this beauty with us at The Flower Challenge!! Marcia (DT) :0)
All round fabulosity! The vellum under the heart is a big tick, as is that dark embossed sentiment. What a gorgeous stencil you've found too! And I love the way you call it a corner chomper - so much more accurate than a corner rounder! Thanks so much for joining ins with us at The Paper Players. :-)
