Flowers for You

Hi Guys!
Today I have a "for fun" card. No occasion, no DT project, just pure creative play. :-D
I saw the color challenge this past week at A Day For Daisies and was initially going to skip it, the colors seemed a bit overwelming, being so many of them, but then when I stopped and thought about it, they're colors I use a lot of anyway so what was I thinking?

Is she a cutie or is she a cutie??
I totally adore this image.

My Recipe:
Image: ADFD
Colors: Prismacolors and Lyras
Papers: My Minds Eye
Border Punch: Martha Stewart


Challenges:
A Day For Daisies: Color Challenge
Charisma Cardz - - Spots
Crafty Purple Frog - For Someone Special
Paper Crafting Journey -  Anything Goes
Willow Sketchie Challenge -- Anything Goes
My Grafico - Anything Goes
I am also using this project as part of the
SPS DT Call

Happy Crafting!
