I totally moved away from the colors, but kept the shape and elements in mind as I made this. The *weed* shape reminded me of these flowers in Oh So Lovely, and the sun prompted me to make a flower from the scallop punch, circle punch and one of the designs in the Bali Breeze paper. The background pink paper has swirls in it that are reminiscent of the beautiful sky in the art piece. There is a really pretty watercolor wash of pink and green along the bottom of the card, which is not visible in this photo. Thanks for coming to look~
This card is for a friend who lost a family member this week.

Sorry about your friend......this card is wonderful. It has so many cool elements to it. I love how you just criss crossed the ribbon and the different tabs and circles, ovals and scallops...it is awesome! Great card!
