A Fusion of Flowers

I love working with sketches, but it makes me miss my own challenge blog Poppy Sketches. This sketch was so easy to work with and gave me tons of inspiration, thank you Fusion Challenge Blog. Again I'm using blue and pink, lol. These colors are just meant to be together. 

My blue in my card looks a little dark but it is a pretty navy, I promise.
