Barbara (bejoyce) selected great colors (i.e, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, & Fresh Fig) for this week's color challenge, CC707. I do not have the colors she chose so I substituted closely-related colors. I am also submitting this card for the Dirty Dozen's Fan Club September Challenge, CT0918.
Thanks for viewing and commenting! I respond in kind!

Bev, you used this week's colors sublimely (is that a word?)! The Chinese Lantern plant just jumps off the card. The wonky stitched dies and contrasting layers are perfect embellishments on this lovely card!

Gorgeous! Love the image and it is so beautifully colored. I have never heard of this plant before, so I looked it up. You taught me something today and as always inspired me. Fabulous use of the colors! TFS
