Cathy will be proud of me I really went to town (well for me) with the distressing and I think it really works and I went out of my comfort zone with Blue and Brown a colour scheme I usually hide away from.
I hope you like it.

You shouldn't be afraid to use those colours again, it looks great! Love the blue bling and the flowers. ;) Nice choice to use a circle to contrast all the squares in this sketch!
