The Beauty of Summer

When I think of summer, I think of sun, gorgeous colors, and nature.  I decided to try the Bring Back Beautiful challenge at the Flourishes Blog today.  Here's my card:





I used the Cherries and Peaches set. I just love the orange of peaches and colored it with copics.  I also used the sketch from Mojo Monday this week to start me off.

Mojo Monday 198
Paper Sundaes
