Memorable Blooms for As You See It Challenge #341

Today's card is for As You See It Challenge #341 which is a Recipe Challenge, which requires you to make a card using all five elements in the recipe. Our team mate, Jan C., came up with this beauty, and it has been fun to work with:

I was thinking spring and pastel colours, so I decided to use a new bundle from the Jan - Apr Mini Catalogue, called the Memorable Blooms bundle. Here's my first result:

I don't mind telling you, I had a bit of a struggle with it! I knew I wanted to use the hexagon die to make an opening and to emboss the large flower swag and colour it in, but I didn't know whether or not to leave the card front all white or to add some of the Wildflower Birthday DSP to the front as well as behind the hexagonal opening. I also couldn't decide whether to emboss the flower swag in white or gold. Here is the other option. Which do you like better?

In the end, I opted for the less busy, white one, but I think I liked the flowers embossed in gold better.

Did someone say Sale-A-Bration? Well, I heard that Stampin' Up!® has added a bunch of new Sale-A-Bration Rewards. Take a look:
