For my card, I went with the new pre-colored Cala Lilies with Sentiments set.  I printed the image on matte photo paper so that the colors were very brilliant.  Next, I ran the image through a Xyron sticker machine, burnished and removed the protector sheet.  I covered the sticky surface with You're So Fine Diamond Clear Cool Hightlight glitter from The Rubber Cafe.  I burnished the glitter into the tape and then fussy cut the flower.
 
To finish my card, I popped the floral image up on foam tape on a Spellbinders Scalloped Oval Die that I pierced for some added interest.  The embossing folder is Trendy Braiding by cArt-Us and is available at CropStop. (use the coupon code CTMP-2 for a 10% discount on your ENTIRE CropStop PURCHASE!!)
 
On Your Special Day is a sentiment from the Cala Lilies with Sentiments set.  I kept all cardstock and mats white for an elegant feel. 
 
Your secret word on my blog is FLOWER.
 
Your next stop on the hop is the FSS Challenge blog.
