The "Hot Mess Success" challenge is to "go messy on a card". Not in my comfort zone. Not. in. my. comfort. zone.
This month I splattered watercolor paint all over a piece of watercolor paper (and the desk surface, and my hands, etc.). After it had dried I stamped my flowers onto it and diecut it for my card.
I was chuckling how you emphasized messes are not in your comfort zone...the (messy)peonies look beautiful, though, and you framed it beautifully (unmessy). I love the mix of patterns you chose, too!
