Just Magnolia Challenge

There's a new blog started up called "Just Magnolia" and this sketch is their first challenge. And this is the card I made for it.
I think I made a bit of a mistake using the blue papers on it. I should have just stuck to papers with the red, orange, yellow and pink of the base paper. My thinking was that I knew I needed to paint the water blue and so I wanted to get some blue papers on there too so that the blue water and papers would match. However I think it just all looks a bit too much. The papers are all from the same set so they are designed to be used together but it just doesn't quite work does it?
Never mind, you live and learn.... :-)

No! I disagree! Before I read what you had to say, I was saying WOW! It's so vibrant and colorful, and the image really works with your color scheme! It definitely compliments your image and the way you colored your image! WONDERFUL!!
