Two-Tone Flora

In early May I had declared that by the end of June I would have used all of the new Stampin' Up!® colors in my cards. Well, there were 2 colors that I had not used much or at all, Moody Mauve and Pebbled Path. So I quickly whipped up these tonal cards today..... and I must say that I am rather pleased with the results! And because I used 2 step stamping, it really did give the colors depth.
