On my back deck I have red and purple petunias. I chose to use these for the pounded flower technique. I don't know that I'm crazy about my color paper choice but IRL my flowers are gorgeous. I tried to photograph them behind the card.

The flowers really are beautiful, Pam. Your card is beautiful too...isn't it interesting how the pounding changes the colors??!

This is sooo gorgeous...I love the look of the pounded petunias!!! The colors are sooo pretty and filling in the white areas gives this a look of designer paper!!! You did an awesome job on this, Pam!!!
