It’s time for another Margaret Moody Sketch Challenge over at the PPA!!! Get ready, its such an awesome sketch... 
Here is my version of Margaret's sketch...
I broke out my Color Coach and picked colors I would never normally pick. As you can see I used Very Vanilla and Early Espresso.... not two of my favorite colors. But I did make sure to include two colors I really liked, Blushing Bride and Pear Pizzazz. This card has turned out to be one of my favorites. Oops, looks like I lined a White envelope instead of a Very Vanilla.... there I go again. As Mom would say, its the sign of a busy mind, not my age. 
I punched out my flowers. placed them on a piece of foam and ran my stylus around them, to soften the paper so they would curl up and pop off the background paper. They were adhered with a mini glue dot over the stamped flower.
the inside is Very Vanilla, just doesn’t look that way here...

I love your card, so sweet and pretty!
Carla I love that stamp set and use it often especially for sympathy cards. Also love those colors and your card is beautiful. I especially like the touch of pearls on the flowers. So soft looking. Great job on the sketch.
Oh, my! Your card is exquisite! I think I have to purchase the Color Coach. I'm seem to always use the same colors and would love to branch out! Great tip about the flowers, too!
