Floral Throwdown...

Hiya!
I had a chance yesterday to play along with this week's Colour Throwdown colours - quite a selection I must say! I paired the colours with Chupa's sketch challenge this week which was so pretty (I keep meaning to play along with this one but things keep getting in the way KWIM??). Anyway, I pulled out a retired set to create some big and bold flowers using Cajun Craze, Tangerine Tango and Daffodil Delight...

I used some Pear Pizzazz DSP in the background and created the scallop trim with a SU border punch. The sentiment is from PTI - such a great sentiment for so many people! I added some chocolate buttons (not the edible kind!!) to the centre of each flower to finish.

Just a short post today - hubby is cooking Sunday lunch today and I can smell that it's near completion... yum!

Thanks for stopping by!
