Pfew!!! Just under the wire with this set!!! I really wanted to make one set in the cool color family and one in the warm family, but I'm just getting back to making cookies after a little break. So thankful as I checked the rules (real quick) to find I made it by a day! Daisies and Black-eyed Susans are my favorite flowers and Monarch my favorite butter fly, so as I dreamed of hot summer days, the set just made it's self. I was hesitant to use any green as (at times) it's hard to tell if it's warm or cool, so the bits I used were high-lighted with yellow and shadowed with brown, to make it clearly warm. Please Enjoy The Warm Days of Summer.

Greens are the HARDEST!  Apparently, the human eye can see more different shades of green than any other color, and this is part of the reason greens straddle the warm and cool parts of the color wheel.
