CAS - paper players challenge

I came across the latest challenge from Paper Players.  Right up my alley - clean and simple with 3 colors.  =)
So I decided to play along.  Click HERE for their challenge.  And here's my card.

I used my new stamp set - Flower Star Wreath - from Hero Arts.  I stamped it twice - cut the flower out from the second stamp image and adhered it atop the original stamped image on the card.  I folded up the petals to add dimension.  I also glazed the entire flower with Crystal Effects - which is similar to Glossy Accents.  I then stamped the sentiment with versamark ink, and embossed it with silver embossing powder.  The finishing touch was to round the two corners.  The sentiment is from Stampin Up!, set called Thank You Kindly.
I hope you like my clean and simple card.  Here's a close up of the glossy flower.  After it dried completely, it smoothed out....more than what is shown in the close up.
Happy stamping!
