I loved playing with all the details on this card!! I punched out all the little circles on the big flower using an 1/8" punch. I was planning on filling them all with tiny eyelets but I really liked the way the marigold paper showed through all the holes so only the flower centers got the eyelets. I added my own little circles to the borders of my layers. For the focal point I stamped a doodle on naturals paper in chocolate chip and then blurred/blended the ink with a water brush. I also added a bit of mustard color to the wash. This is the same technique you see on the greeting as well.

Oh my gosh, this is beautiful. I would never have thought to use these colors with this set, but it looks so pretty and rich and warm. Awesome, as always!
