FS171, CC271 Hollyhocks for Cathleen

Photo Details

Poster: jaforsyt

Two challenges are met with this pretty little Hollyhock image from Mark's Finest Papers. Just a little peek at what is to come in June;-)
For Sunday's Featured Stamper Cathleen, a big congratulations! I've loosely based my card on this beautiful card of hers.
I changed the dp, colors, and image.
Today's Color combo Betty has chosen Dusty Durango, Rich Razzleberry, and So Saffron, and what a pretty palette to work with!

All supplies for this card can be found at Mark's Finest Papers.

Please visit my blog for additional info.

Beautiful Hollyhocks. I really like your bg's, and paper piercing in the corners. VERY pretty card.
