I love today's challenge colors, but I can probably count on one hand the number of times I've used Blush Blossom. I brayered it, Cameo Coral, and Certainly Celery to make my background for the image.
This is my tribute to the last lazy days of summer...which are over for us now that my son is back in school. It's also hints to the fact that the little girl he has a crush on is in every one of his classes this year. Of course, being in 7th grade, he'll hardly speak to her. He doesn't blush exactly, but does get a sheepish smile on his face when she's nearby.
I'll send this to a friend at church who broke her elbow...ouch!
TFL!

Oh, my!! This is simply stunning!! Love the layout and how you used the colors. I so know what you mean about young crushes, I have a dd going into 8th, all you have to do is mention names and she goes all smiles. Putting this card in my favorites.

Oh, Leisa, how wonderfully gorgeous is this. Your brayering is drop dead gorgeous! And then you went and added that magnificent tree. That was it for me: Definitely today's winner, hands down.
