I couldn't wait to get home from work and play with my stamps. I had checked the colours for today's challenge and spent way too much time at work thinking about what I was going to do with it. The good part is the card came together quickly, the bad part...well I still have work to do!
Pretty straight forward here. The Pretty Petals background was inked up in Sahara sand and stamped on Sahara sand for a subtle tone in tone look. I added pearls ad sizzlet butterflies to make it pop. The bottom edges are fancied up with border punches and it's all tied together with ribbon that had to be 10yrs old. I don't have any strawberry slush so I went with rose red. And there you are.

Your thinking paid off though...so pretty. Little butterflies joyfully fluttering about. Love your scalloped bottom layers with the ribbon, a perfect touch for our friends...TFs..:0)

Beautifully designed card with the subtle floral design in the bg and pretty double edging with the punched borders. The tiny butterflies are a sweet touch.
