Korin's sketch looked vaguely familiar....and it was. I moved panel #3 to accommodate my blossom. It seemed like a good sketch to use this specialty paper that I bought a long time ago....wish I remembered where I got it since it lends an interesting texture.

I am always in awe of your coloring. The blending, shadows and highlight are always perfectly done! Love that textured paper and the pearls- just enough to enhance it! Gorgeous card!

Sallie, I wish you remembered where you got your paper too. It gives such dimension. I also love your beautifully colored dahlia against the gray. A beautiful card.

Oh, that paper is VERY interesting, Sallie, in a special way! I love your choice of gray cs, making it stand out nicely. And your flower and leaves just seem to pop against the gray......great scoring~
