For this challenge, Marcy wants us to stretch ourselves by trying something outside our comfort zone. I used light colors on the leaves with an unblended shadow of a darker marker. It was hard for me not to blend it, I so wanted to. Then I went around the outside of the image with a light blue and that was scary with no guide line. Also I added some interest and layers using the beautiful SugarCutsBirthdayJournalCard from SugarPea Designs. I am scared of layers. I like things very clean and simple. I was surprised that I could add them and keep it clean. Also I did not color in the letters, to keep it clean and not take away from the color of the leaves.

This is just so pretty. I have never used a digi image and I have been toying with downloading this digi for a few days and having a go - so after seeing this I have made up my mind. What a great card.
