Double challenge day for me!!! This is for a long overdue card for one of our former queens, Grace, special day. I love browsing through her awesome gallery and I was inspired by the flowers on this card. I favored this card a long time ago with the idea I could someday make a card just like it. Haven't done that yet but it is still my inspiration. Sorry I am so late but it will be in the mail to you tomorrow.
It also works for today's challenge. The yellow around and in the flowers hopefully works for the yellow challenge.
I totally cased Parkerquilter once again at her workshop yesterday. I got to use the new SU colors to watercolor. They are so beautiful.
Thank you for looking.

CJ russian spy, this is just fabulous. I love the color you've used. The design is fabulous. Grace will be so pleased, of this I'm sure. Dont be disappointed if Grace doesnt leave a comment; she's out of town for the next 2 weeks. I love that flower jar. No kidding here just honest to goodness compliments on a fabulous card. I'm trying to be nice, which is incredibly difficult for me, as you well know.

OMGoodness Connie!!! This is so amazing! I love your watercoloring - I have this set and can promise you nothing I've created with it can compare to this!! Your card inspires me to give it another try. Also love these new SU colors together too! Thank you for all your very sweet comments on my cards - it was a nice surprise this morning.
