Good Times - Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge May 15th reveal

It's reveal time at Another Freaking Scrappy Challenge blog, with a lovely sketch, drawn by Anne Pennington:
I turned the sketch to fit the photo of my boys, and of course I added more layers to the basic sketch.
My inspiration for the palette was from the extra challenge at Color Me Scrappy, with this moodboard (I tookd the left photo):
Tammy, the new owner of CMS, asked what do we like/dislike about color challenges. Well, I like color challenge for two reasons: first it makes me go out of my comfort zone, use colors of colors combo I normally don't use, and I feel it evolves my creativity. The second reason is that it makes me use some of my hoarded/neglected papers and embellies.
The palette I chose was one of my fav - green/blue/yellow/gray, so it was easy to work with it. I decided to use some of my most old and neglected papers - DCWV 'The Guy' stack and 'Cafe Mediterranean' stack. I added some scraps of Basic Gray and Echo Park, along with StudioFourteen40' flair (A Happy life set 3) and vellum dot (Everyday dot - set 1) and tab (Everyday tab set 2 - out of stock but I hope it will soon be back!).
I would like to enter it also to the Word challenge at Scrap&Play, with the word 'flowers'. my choises are: F-flair button; L-layers; O- one photo; W - white; E- Echo Park polka dots pp; R- round vellum dot; S - sequins.
Here are some close-ups on the details:
