    I love how bold you are with colors. I’ve gotten so scared of making mud that I tend to be very conservative with my color choices; I wouldn’t have thought to do bright splashy oranges with those greens, but I love how yours turned out. That is definitely today’s lesson: be bold with colors! Thanks for sharing your card and your process with us. It helps me to be able to have a bit of a roadmap as I try to venture into crafty parts unknown. :D
