E. As You Like It; new on May 1; theme ? = soft or bold colors and why?; My "Annie's Kitchen" has bold colors for the 2 of the cardstocks, the inks for the stenciled kitchen tools and the traced black circles and little scattered dots; I like the contrast to the light color background cardstock that the stenciling, tracing, and scattered dotting are on.
