MUSE Challenge #9




Another Muse Challenge... a lovely card by Marion VaggThis one was truly a "challenge" for me as I have deduced, in looking back at my previous posts, that although i love teals/blues I rarely use those colors in my card marking. Guess that I am more comfortable with lots of white/cream with the addition of bright pastels. AND, this is a real departure for me to use a dark card base (which is also a bit different to photograph!).

This is a beautiful card; I also tend to do a lot of muted cards but find I am really drawn to vibrant colors so I need to do more of that as well. The layout on this one is just awesome!
