Flourishes Summer Lovin' Challenge

 

It's that time of the month when Flourishes has their new release

and a few challenges to go with it....this challenge is Summer Lovin'

you can use the photo for color inspiration or just go off on your own

as long as it's "summertime"

 

 

I needed a thank you card to send out

and chose this Flourish set "With Gratitude" 

 

I colored in the image with my "small" stash of Copics...

the doily in the background is a new Cheery Lynn die I just purchased

called "Pinwheel" doily....I actually have a "real" doily in this pattern...

the layering of it came quite by accident...

I cut the coral one first, and the color just didn't stand out....

so then cut a green one, and somehow it ended up on the coral one...

I loved the layering of the 2 and "viola'"...

the card is quite large  (5 1/2" square) to accommodate the doily....

I am sending this to a friend for a gift she gave to me.....
