well i meant to get this card finished WAAAAAAY earlier today, but i just had to go to Michaels for some "much needed" supplies (yeah, right!!) and then my hubby got home from his trip this week and we went out for a bite to eat. so it's better late than never, right?!this card is for dawn mcvey's current raspberry suite colour challenge (#12). these 4 colours look fantastic on the plant in her pic, but it's not so easy to make them work on a card! hence, the challenging part, i guess...

paper...
cream, celery & dark red cs
