I started out with the intention of using an actual circle. I had a die pulled out and had a circle cut. I went to my flower die stash thinking I could decorate with flowers and leaves. But then this envelope with flowers jumped right out at me and demanded to be used!! It all worked out perfectly because the next thing that jumped right out at me was the multipack of in colors that showed up in my Stampin' Up order. I've used all but the blue above. The green, Shy Shamrock, is not normally my favorite kind of green but about this time it started occurring to me that I was accidentally creating a card that I could send to a friend who needed "healing hugs" and I thought Shy Shamrock was a refreshing yet cheerful kind of color. So without a plan in place, everything came together and I love the results!
I hope to see you playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches!
