I chose this card of Sandie's as my inspiration. FS359 ~ Field Flowers by sistersandie at Splitcoaststampers
I had been working with Retro Fresh design paper from SU and decided to use some of those colors in the inks. I wanted to include a strip of the paper which had squares on it, so I sponged the colors to be more square like than blended. I changed the base color to tangerine to made the other colors pop. Then I angled the image panel to see more of the designer paper. Clean and Simple is difficult for me. LOL Thanks Sandie for a great sample! Enjoy your week as Queen!

Thank you SO much for making this card - and in such a funky way! I am having the best time, up in my craft room - wearing a crown (handmade, but who cares!). Thank you too for your helpful and caring comments in the gallery.

I love this card! It seems that recently, when I pick out a card from the gallery that appeals to me, the artist is YOU! Thank you for always being such an inspiration!

Love that retro paper! I think I was around when it was fresh for the first time. :-) That orange background panel is the greatest foil for your white image panel. I love the sponging too! TFS

I love how the three colors blend together on the front panel. They look so nice with the flower stamp you used and the sentiment is just perfect. All the parts blend together so nicely.
