Blogger's Challenge week 40!

Wow, forty weeks already. Hard to believe. This weeks challenge was a simple one -- spring flowers was the theme. The first flowers I think of when I think of spring are tulips so I knew right away that I was either gonna use my Terrific Tulips or Never-Ending Joy. Since Terrific Tulips is retired I decided to go with the Never-Ending Joy set. Now I needed more challenges since I have not stamped all week I wanted to make it a bit more of a challenge so I found a color challenge on one of my groups - Bravo Burgundy, Cameo Coral, Certainly Celery and Basic Black for accent. --- hmmm, might as well find a layout challenge too while I am at it! So I went back a week or two and found one I wanted to try back when it came out but I was too swamped. The sketch is from Poetic Artistry and it is number 28. She has wonderful sketches on her blog, so well done, not sloppy like mine, lol. Finally, I thought that this would be ENOUGH challenges to try to combine at one time! I must say that the colors scared me a bit but I am very happy with the results.
