For this weeks color challenge, I was excited. I love the colors that were picked, Aqua, Kraft, Black and Coral. I have for all of my adult life been a coral person. In my color choice for clothes and in my Home. In the 1980s most of the homes in America were decorated in Blues and Mauves; mine was in shades of Green and Coral.
On the card is a crocheted flower that I made, it's one of the things I like to do when I am sitting watching TV. I am able to make 1 in about 15 min. It’s great to have a supply on hand for my creations.

So glad you liked the colors! Coral has been a fav of mine for a long time too! I had blue and peach in my 90's home...time for a change! Your card is lovely. I wish I would have had my Grandma teach me how to crochet like that before she passed! Very pretty! Thanks for playing with Just Us Girls!
