Amazing colouring, the poppies look so lifelike. That vintage lace must have been hard to part with but sure looks wonderful on the card. I'll get to the challenge later today. I've had a bunch of house showings and had to get out of the house everytime someone shows up. Later today when I get home I can pull my stuff out and make a mess! Thanks for a great challenge, I love pearls.

Your card is beautiful the stitching, lace, pearls all accentuate that gorgeous poppy!! Great Job, and thanks for such a fun challenge and interesting clues, I only got one clue but was lost with the other clues, but that is what makes for a fun challenge. Have a great day!!
