Forever

Morning all,

The sun is shine, after yesterday bleak day, I think we are in for a warm one today
Making cards this afternoon, as it is "World Card Making Day" today.
I finally finished this layout, late yesterday. I had been working on it for several days as just could not get the layering right for the cluster of flowers (that i was actually partial happy with).

This challenge is for:  Artastic challenge blog page:

The challenge is to take inspiration  from  Lyn Butchart with a piece called "Green Peacock". 

THE CRITERIA -  Monochromatic (can be any colour) Feel free to use black, white, kraft or navy as your accent colours.

I really had to think about this one, before i decide if i would give it a ago and hopefully  I have the colours right. I have used shades of red right down to the lower end of the colour wheel, using a reddish pink for my heart and circle.What  Does Monochromatic mean:- relating to, or having tones of one colour in addition to the ground hue:
