This is for Color Challenge 415 - More Mustard, Old Olive and Midnight Muse. I did try to limit myself to those colors (a mustardy yellow, an olive green and the dark blue) plus neutrals, but in the end that Pool Party BG just looked so good that I could not resist. I skipped dessert this week - no watercoloring. Fun card to make and interesting colors to play with!
Thanks for looking!

You are right-that pool party does look good with these other colors, Rachel! Your created scene is so pretty and springlike; makes me wish it were here already! Very nice card~

I'm glad I left this window open! I love the little row of hummers, and I particularly like the contrast between the embossed background and the crisp scalloped flower border.
