Flower Bouquet with Yellow and Red

My card today is for the Papertrey Ink anniversary challenge to create a bouquet using more than one floral stamp set.  In my case, there was an additional challenge - no floral stamp sets!  Although I've been making cards for years, I'm just starting to dip my toes into the waters of stamping.  I have only a handful of inks and stamp sets, all of them sentiments with a few extra elements included.

But I thought I'd still give it a try and see what I might come up with.  Yes, it's a bouquet of flowers!  In a vase!  And I needed bits from four different PTI stamp sets to put it together.  Though I didn't have any floral stamp sets to work with, I think my card fits with the spirit of this challenge. 

Card details:

• Card stock is Papertrey Ink (PTI) harvest gold (yellow), pure poppy (red), ripe avocado, stamper's select white, and the polka dot print from PTI harvest gold pattern pack.
