Feeling Blue (and brown) and blue (and brown) The Stampsmith Challenge

Here's my entry to the latest Stampsmith Challenge which is Blue and Brown. I got myself into a right tizz with this, I started by cutting out a card blank with the die, but it seemed to be too much of the same shape. I  was surrounded by die cut Basic Gray in various shades of  blues and browns, and I could not get it to look right.
I finally settled on these and Marilyn (she makes any card look good).
I added a bit of lace and some flowers. The stamping says Celebrate in Style - something that Marilyn always did.
Thanks very much for looking and have a fab Sunday x

    How retro! That paper is smashing - and of course, Marilyn... sigh, she does look good anywhere! I love how the little flowers set the whole thing off... just beautiful! Thanks for hangin' in there with this layout - we love seeing your work in The Stampsmith Challenge!
    Cheers,
    Val :)
