Hi All!
I wasn't going to play today b/c I have soooooo much to do. We are going out of town either tonight or tomorrow morning, but..... I couldn't resist! LOL!
I used my scalloped oval nesties to create this frame out of the "box". I pealed back the layer on the center piece and sponged craft white on that part. On the outside part I sponged choc chip and black. For the main image, I stamped the flowers in choc chip and embossed in clear ep. Oh, before that I stamped the old french script in creamy caramel. I sponged on creamy caramel, close to cocoa, choc chip and black. Like in the faux burnt edges technique but just for distressing here.
The card base is So Saffron and so is the butterfly.
The rest is done just like the center piece. I added those cool brads and that's it!
So, What do you think???
Thanks for looking!

I love the effect that you were able to create with this card. Your background beautifully focuses our eye to the lovely center creation. Great job with this challenge.
