New Best Thoughts Hostess Set

Here's another card using the new hostess stamp set Best Thoughts and all but one of the new 2015-2017 In Colors.  I stamped the flower image onto water color paper and then stamped it two more times onto scrap pieces of water color paper.  I colored the flowers then cut out portions of the scrap flowers to create a layers effect on the final image.  It turned out really nice, but it's hard to see in the picture.  I used the In Colors Watermelon Wonder, Mint Macaron, Delightful Dijon and Tip Top Taupe.  For the card base I used the New In Color Watermelon Wonder.  As you might be able to to tell I did use a few other things that are not new, but I was worried about that because I knew the focus would be on the flower. Oh yeah, I did use the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set and Tip Top Taupe ink to add the little splatter in the background.   Hope you like it!
