Stippled Blossoms Challenge Card, I mean Really a Challenge!

I have been working on cards for an upcoming craft sale, and today I was making some wedding cards.  I was looking for something other than the white on white variety of wedding cards.  My nephew recently married at Como Park Conservatory, and he wore shorts and a white shirt, and she was in a white summer dress with a bright colored bouquet.  A fancy schmancy wedding card would just not fit the bill for that wedding.  I decided to make a bright floral card, and I was inspired by the color challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments to use Daffodil Delight, Tempting Turquoise, Certainly Celery and Not Quite Navy, and this is the card I made.  I also chose the layout from another challenge at  Monday Lunchtime Sketch Challenge at Techno Stamper.  
 This is the first time I pulled out my new stamp set Stippled Blossoms, and I found it a bit of a challenge.  I have a hard time with 2 step stamping, and I am always tempted to pull out the old Stampamajig, but I have found in the past that that is frustrating, too, because the layers just don't really "line up", and I have a hard time dealing with this.  I am really drawn to the regal look of this rose, and I have never had a floral set like this, and I really want to do something beautiful, and romantic.  So, I played around with a variety of colors, and I decided that my stamp colors that I own just don't pair up together for this kind of project.  I think I am either going to have to do some research and see what others are using, or buy more colors.  It was a trial and error kind of thing, and after much trying I was never able to come up with a satisfactory group of flowers, so I decided to go the route of cutting out the ones that worked, and ditching the ones that didn't.  I gave it my best shot, and spent a lot of time fooling around, and I am definitely not going to give up on Stippled Blossoms, but I do have to find some better instructions on how to use this set.  But, that will have to wait for another day. 
Til another day, and another card,
