We have a new Color Challenge (PPA138) at Pals Paper Arts using Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso, and Cherry Cobbler!
The inspiration for this simple card came from a card created by Nichole Heady. It features elements and a quote from two of my favorite sets. The options for working with this color combo are many, so I hope you'll get out your supplies and join us for the challenge!
Need a little nudge? See what the PPA Design Team did with this versatile trio of colors! I'm sure you'll find their designs very inspiring!
If you like my card, please leave me a comment! I appreciate all of you who take the time to visit my blog and view my work and I love hearing from you! I truly love sharing it with all of you!

These remind me of a bright and bold sunflower, which I love. Love how you attached your Baker's Twine with the notches!

I love your card! Mixed bunch is one of my favorites but I'm in a rut of pinks right now and your daffodil and expresso colors are inspiring! Thank you for sharing your beautiful card.

Margarette these flowers in YELLOW just scream SUNSHINE....and the twine is my favorite part of this... perfect accent and I like how it fits into the bottom ticket corner punched corners. (does that sound right?)
Love the color combo for the challenge and I hope to play.
