MFT Idol Judges Challenge Week 4

This weeks Idol Judges Challenge was to use a flower set from MFT to create a card. If you didn't have a flower set then you were allowed to use any flower image from MFT. Well, at first I didn't even t hink I was going to participate. I have 4 sets and they are all WTG (Who's that Girl) sets. The only flower I thought I had was either a purse with a flower on it, or the flowered chair that my How Sweet girl was sitting on!! Then I saw this one Lotus flower stamp in the Serenity Now set! This simple little card was very painstaking to put together. I was originally going to combine several challenges into one . . . Dawn McVey's color challenge and SFYTT. But whatever I did just didn't look right. So after HOURS of pushing paper around this is what I finally came up with! It's hard to tell in the photo but the back layer of blue cardstock has the circle coin image stamped on in Versa Mark. It looked really cool on a whole sheet, kinda like polka-dotted background paper. But the more I played with the layout, the smaller the card got and the less of the paper you could see :0(

Anywhoo . . . this is it. Thanks for looking.
