Dahlia


This cute little girl is called Dahlia. Another card to take me out of my comfort zone. The colours of certainly celery, chocolate chip and perfect plum for Color Throwdown which is a challenge I found this week from another blog. I love colour challenges and this certainly was a challenge for me as I would not have thought of putting those colours together. However I am really pleased with the result. The lovely sketch is from Simon Says.
