Double challenge day for me!!! This is for a long overdue card for one of our former queens, Grace, special day. I love browsing through her awesome gallery and I was inspired by the flowers on this card. I favored this card a long time ago with the idea I could someday make a card just like it. Haven't done that yet but it is still my inspiration. Sorry I am so late but it will be in the mail to you tomorrow.
It also works for today's challenge. The yellow around and in the flowers hopefully works for the yellow challenge.
I totally cased Parkerquilter once again at her workshop yesterday. I got to use the new SU colors to watercolor. They are so beautiful.
Thank you for looking.

Oh, this is a nice looking card with those colors!! I love that image, and am not sure if I have it. (Isn't that terrible?!) I like how you used your yellow as a background color to your pretty vased flowers.

What a beautiful vase of flowers and lovely card altogether.
p.s. - it was a vase of flowers I sent Sue, not cupcakes as da Mudder thinks. I'd say it would be a great idea to use on some of your kids cards, and there were loads of free downloads. I should know - I tried several before I chose the flowers, LOL.

It' pretty Connie. The glass flower pots are my faves, reminds me of what my sister Soelah could do, in just a few minutes. She had a knack for decorating and she used glass jars like this and add anything in them and set them on a windowsill or a side table in my bedroom and magically the room would be transformed in a nice cauzy place. Talent huh, well, you have did the same thing wih this card, the tree in the background makes your card even prettier than it is right now. Is that possible...tfs Connie. Made me reminisce but still smile!
