Embellish Color Challenge with Labels

Today is the start of a fresh new Embellish Color Challenge.... I know I pretty much stay this almost every time but, these colors are fabulous! We've also got a pretty amazing sponsor as well, Waltzingmouse Stamps!!! Love their images and their stamps are top notch! This weeks challenge is to create a project using the colors pictured above and to incorporate a label element. Here is my take...
Using a 'tag shoulders' from Very Vintage Labels No. 1, I stamped it twice onto Berry Sorbet cardstock and heat embossed in clear. Cut each out and attach above and below the sentiment (from Giga Guidelines) and a flourish (from VVLabels No.1). Punched holes and strung Berry Sorbet satin ribbon through.
For directions on how to create this cute little rolled paper flower, here is a tutorial I found on Splitcoast Stampers. The only difference was that I used a pair of scalloped scissors to cut the spiral.

Be sure to stop on by the Embellish blog for the details on the challenge, the prize and for some amazing inspiration from the other talented ladies on the Design Team. I hope we have inspired you enough to give this challenge a try and I can't wait to see what you all create!
