The Flower Challenge #22 - Reminder

Have you made a card for The Flower Challenge this month?  There's still time and the Design Team has more inspiration for you over on the blog.  The theme is
There are a couple of definitions of monochrome.  One is black and white, and the other is various shades of the same color.  Like my first card, I decided to use color and this time I went with red.
I stamped and heat embossed the Mondo Sakura from EBE in Altenew Velvet and then colored it with Zigs.  Once it was dry I colored the background with Festive Berries Distress Ink, sprinkled it with water and blotted.  The SSS sentiment was die cut from paper similar in color to the darkest Zig I used for the leaves and stamen.

We hope you'll join us this month.  Remember that flowers have to be the focal point of your card.

    Bobby, I absolutely love the deep and gorgeous shades of reds on your lovely bouquet and on your fabulous and beautiful water colored background, your sentiment matches the colors on your card perfectly.
    Beautiful card.

    On second look I can see its red rather than pink, I think the wash had me thinking pink but doesnt matter cause its stunning and thats what matters.
