As I was driving to work one day I saw a sign for a new housing development that really caught my. As I sat there I realized Almost Amethyst and Mellow Moss came were the colours of the sign. That night I came home and made this card. In this picture the flowers look like a light blue but they are actually Almost Amethyst. Don't you find yourself translating colours into SU colours?

Love hearing your inspiration for this card-it is lovely! I also would like to know what you used over each flower center - appears to be a window sheet cut from a circle punch? Fabulous card & use of this set!!

Very pretty...love the flowers cut out. However, the green paper is not SU...SU's paper has no texture. Are you sure it's not Bazill or that Hero Arts paper? I wish SU had more textured papers but they don't.

Absolutely charming, so nicely done! I can TOTALLY relate to you in regard to translating things to SU colors - My latest card colors were inspired (not by "red and pink") but by a "Rose Red and Cameo Coral" colored carnation I saw in a bouquet! LOL!

I think the paper Tracy used is Mellow Moss, but during scanning some paper gets lines in them. Either way, the card is so elegant, and has just a flavor of the tropics to it! Great job!
