Whiff of Joy colour challenge

We have a colour challenge this week at Whiff of Joy Challenges and the challlenge is to use Burgundy (or red) and Green. Nice and easy one and I'm so looking forward to seeing what you all come up with.
I really rushed this card this week - too much to do and not enough time to do it all in lol, so a quick and simple card this week. Fortunately the gorgeous Whiff of Joy image doesn't need much to make a fab card so I'm lucky there hey!! I coloured Melinda hugging heart with distress inks and H2O's. The papers are the very yummy Basic Grey Wassail 6 x 6 pad . Flowers are Prima, Zooms are from Stamp Galaxy and the border punch is from Martha Stewart - Lace Doiley punch. The sentiment is a Stampin Up rub on

Thanks for looking,

    This definitely does not look like a quickie. It is beautiful and rich. As you say, that image don't need much attention as it is a beauty on its own. Warm regards

    Not been able to visit for a while, so treated myself to a good old root through all the lovely items you've done since my last visit. Stopped in me tracks when I got to this one!! ALL your work is to die for, but this one is just jaw dropping. I wish I could create stuff a QUARTER as good as you. This card is FAB!!
