I love the color poppy parade, it made my lips freeze at first, but I have grown to love it so much! And Baja Breeze, that's my absolute favorite this week....and I also love the just a hint darker then Celery hue of Pear Pizazz.....so there you have it- I LOVE this color combo and I can't wait to see what you all do with it!!! I debated whether to leave this butterfly on my card or send him flying in another direction, but in the end I sort of liked the random placement, and I thought it kinda looks like he just flew up a the last minute and landed on my Poppy Parade!! ;) Happy Tuesday everyone! Hope you like my Poppy Parade!

Gorgeous card and a great color challenge combo!! I was like you - not sure I'd like Poppy Parade at all (I'm more of a Rose Red girl) but wow, I've become a convert. It's a delicious color and you've showcased it so well here!!
