I really thought these colors today lent themselves to a soft and pretty poinsettia bloom. The flower is embossed in White and lightly watercolored, and popped up.
The ONLY thing I have in Going Gray is a marker, so I used it to ink up the flourish in the background and a little of it on the watercoloring.
