Poppies card

Hi everyone, another beautiful sunny day again here.
I have another 'Less is More' card to show you today.
This week the challenge is a.......
Colour Challenge 
"This month we would like you to choose TWO opposite
 colours from this Colour Wheel"
This time I decided to use orange and blue. The blue
looked a lot more like turquoise when I took  the photo.
So I had to do a bit of altering in PSP to get it to show
 the right colour.I always have trouble with my reds looking
 pink too for some reason! I used some distress ink again 
and also another of my latest stamps ( Memory Box
 Luminous Poppies). I stamped , coloured  and cut the
 flowers out to add behind the little frame. A tiny butterfly
completed the card, come and have a closer look...........
ps. Had trouble with my cold/ virus /Asthma/breathing today. I 
just couldn't breathe properly at all and OH was most
 worried I might pass out lol.Called 111 and they said 
to call an ambulance....oh my! I managed to wait until our surgery
 opened and the Dr gave me steroids. Now breathing again
I am glad to report lol.
pps. a big welcome to my latest follower too, welcome aboard!

    I'm sorry to hear about your breathing Viv, sounds like this virus has really knocked you about!
    Your card is absolutely beautiful. I really love the way the flowers extend beyond the little frame you made... very clever.
    Cheers,
    Beccy
