There are very few of my cards that I "really like", but this is one of them! I don't know what exactly it is that I like, but I like it! lol The flowers showed up a little lighter than they actually are. I just got a set of Prismacolor Premium Colored Pencils (120) and this is my first card using them. I was completly overwhelmed by all the color choices!! I really have a hard time making a decision when choosing things (ask my hubby how many pics I take of my cards and how long it takes me to decide which one to post... I usually make him pick)!! lol I was using this scrap piece of paper, and thought Guava would look good, so I started with the peaches and ended up with Mineral Orange! I think I need to practice a lot with the Prismacolors. I'm used to using the Koh-i-noor pencils (they are sooooo smooth and blend like butter), but the colors are limited. IMHO, there is a different "feel" to the Prismacolors... maybe I should try a better quality paper. Well, I have LOTS of colors to practice with!!

First of all . . . kudos to you for actually saying that you "like" this card! Not many people would say that. But when something looks good, it just looks good!
It's very beautiful and your colors is just WOW! Love the colors you chose. Keep it . . . frame it . . . make another one LOL
