I didn't want to add a black sentiment, but wanted something softer ... I may have gone a little too soft. :)

Such a gorgeous card <3 I think the sentiment looks perfect
Absolutely GORGEOUS card, Loll! I love your color palette your pale gray sentiment is perfect...I don't think it's too soft at all! I need to play with Ripe Persimmon and Abandoned Coral...they blend beautifully! xx
This is GORGEOUS Loll! And too funny that I have that stamp too and have NEVER inked it up...guess I better get busy now that I've seen how beautiful it comes out! Lovely, lovely card my friend!! :0)
Such pretty PB flowers Loll and beautifully done by you. I love the soft sentiment which does detract from the beautifully watercoloured flowers. x
Gorgeous Loll, love the softness of the flowers and the sentiment is perfect :)
Beautiful watercolored stamped with the help of your MISTI flower design, Loll. So soft and pretty. Love your choice of sentiment too. TFS my friend. Hugs..Nancy
Beautiful, and I think your soft sentiment is perfection!
A stunning card Loll - the soft sentiment makes it really discrete, and leaves the focus on the stunning floral image, which you have stamped so beautifully
Blessings

No you can never be too soft Loll....x What a beautiful and pretty card. I love the watercolour effect and what wonderful colours and a real stunner x.
Just so lovely
Great technique Loll, such a pretty stamp it really doesn't need anything else. :)
well. by now you must be aware of my love affair with grey... it's perfection, Loll! These gorgeous blooms would make any day special!!

Brilliant job of blind coloring on the back of this pretty stamp, Lolly! It looks completely hand-painted and I love the way you used a soft sediment. It allows the flowers be the only focus for the eyes. (Note to self.) Hugs, Dolly
That soft watercolor look is beautiful. The greeting doesn't overwhelm the focal image and looks lovely in the gray.
Wowie, gorgeous! The colors - yum! I like the soft sentiment. Breathtaking, Loll!
WOW !! A delightful card !! I love how the flowers blur into a mist. This card is one of your most beautiful cards, Loll !!!
hugs,

Oh Bonnie this is really beautiful. Love the colours and the sentiment is perfect in soft grey. Black would have been too severe I think.
Absolutely stunning, Loll. The flower is beautiful and the colour of the sentiment is perfect. xx
Soft, dreamy and gorgeous, Loll ... to me, the subtle sentiment is perfect ... it allows these lovely blooms to shine! Hugs, Anita :)
This is just stunning Loll! It looks like a painting that would hang in the wall, an expensive one! lol I love how soft it is and the sentiment done subtly is just perfect and not to soft at all. It is simply stunning! Your mixed media paper must me thicker than mine, what kind to you use? I have the Cannson Mix Media that I got from WalMart. Hugs, Brenda
Wow this looks free hand painting. You did a terrific watercolour stamping, truly amazing. This masterpiece is more than luck, it's just plain talent :D
I love this stamp and have it in my NBUS box. You have inspired me to get it out. Love the colors you've used and may have to CASE this! You always inspire me, my talented friend!
Fabulous stamping with water spritz card, Loll! I love the soft touch. You did a great job of separating the colors of the flower ad leaves! The light gray sentiment makes the flowers the star of the show.
