Wow, this is a stunner. I love this set but have always used it for weddings keeping it white. I have clearly been missing the boat. Thanks for the new inspiration with this image.

Those colours are just stunning - your watercolouring is fantastic! And I love that layout and can see why it inspired a sketch challenge. Really lovely.
