Love the unusual pops of brilliant green & blue on this one. Your designs are normally a bit more muted, but this one is a superlative look as well. Great use of the fabulous Altenew stamps (I LOVE those too). With your wonderful flair for CAS design...this is just beautiful. TFS & Hugs

Hij is weer zo leuk Petra! Ik denk dat ik mij ook wat vaker ga verdiepen in een challenge/sketch misschien komt de zin en inspiratie ook weer terug want het wil nog niet echt lukken bij mij de laatste weken :-(

Groetjes Thea
(mijn eigen verjaardag is 18 februari zoals je vroeg)

Wat een mooi kaartje Petra! Het vellum vind ik prachtig! Op een of andere manier stralen jouw kaartjes rust uit.
Lieve groet,

OMGoodness, Petra, not only am I impressed with your gorgeous card, but I am so envious of your lovely weather and flowers! We have 15 cm of snow here - I don't like winter and I am ready for spring! Your card reminds me of spring! Beautifully designed! I love the vellum overlay!

What a great idea to flip the sketch! Your colouring is beautiful and I love the layered circles over the softness of the vellum! Thanks for playing with us at Global Design Project this week!

Again with another masterpiece Petra my friend!! I love how the vellum softens the boldness of the background layers and the way the colours of the background layers are picked from the colours of that beautiful flower and leaves!! GORGEOUS!! Have a great day! Hazel xx

Petra, you are a designer extraordinaire when it comes to creating flower and circle clusters that are always so wonderfully fresh and eye-catching. You've showcased your Altenew products beautifully (and I'm adding yet more Altenew to my wish list!). Gorgeous!
