This is for Color Challenge 432 - and at this point SU's color refresh and new in-colors have blown past me so everything is a sub. (Not much of a difference from my past practices, of course, but without the guilt factor). I used Pool Party, Adirondack dye ink in Pool and Stream for the flowers, Summer Starfruit for my yellow and Gina K Moonlit Fog for my colors here. Aqua Mist card base. Also a yellow Prisma pencil to scribble an outline around the flowers and I put it away before I looked at the color so that must remain a mystery. The BG text is embossed in silver (dessert - and I know it's hard to see) and I finished with a gold ribbon and bow. Not much else to say, except that this was one of those cards that required more knowledge of lighting technique to photograph properly than I possess. Rather than spend the rest of the day taking inadequate photographs of it and getting frustrated, I'm leaving it as is. (Which is a huge step in personal growth for me, I kid you not).
Thanks for looking!

Your yellow scribbling around those poppies is FAB!! It really shows off the poppies. And I love the unique layout and the little gold bow at the top is a clever detail.
