Paper Players color challenge

I found a challenge blog called Paper Players.  Click HERE to see their challenge blog post.
The colors to use were: Baja Breeze, Poppy Parade, and So Saffron.  Sadly I missed read the part where I was to use white as the neutral....I used kraft....and I added some brown accent paper.  Hopefully they're not too strict on that neutral colors thing...but if they are I'll read the fine lines better next time.
Anyway, here is my card for this challenge.

I "cased" the layout design from K. Werner's latest Friday video, on Two Peas in a Bucket.  
The stamp set is Friends Never Fade, from Stampin' Up!  
Simple stamp the image twice - in baja breeze and in poppy parade.  Cut out the flower in poppy parade, color in the center and adhere with dimensionals.  Add strips of designer paper and twine and that's it!
For a softer look I also rounded the corners.
Thanks for stopping by.  Til the next challenge... happy stamping!
