I agree, these color challenges are stretching, which is always good, and I also rarely use yellow or grey! This is very pretty, I really like your flowers and sponging and that cute button!

I think Rose red is my favorite because it is more soft and can be used for a bold image like your flower and not look so gaudy. This is a wonderfully tasteful CAS card!

Marilyn, you did a FABULOUS card with today's colors. I agree, they weren't as easy as Betty suggested. I find colors of the same value tend "to fight" on a card, but you handled them beautifully. Your blossoms are gorgeous! Love the ribbon and covered button treatment too.
