I've been on vacation, and I went through serious stamping withdrawal!!! I missed a few of the challenges, one of which was this color challenge to use cool carribean, whisper white, and black.
I used the Swirls Cuttlebug folder on the black panel. Dotted my butterflies with the black fine tip marker and accented with flower brads. Did the Riveting background piece in two-tone. Tried something different and used the concave punch to create a different corner punch on the panels.
Although I came back with a nasty cold, it felt good to be back at my stamping table! TFL!

Oh My Goodness. This is SO pretty. I really like the way that you split the colour on the circle and the polka dots on the Butterflies are Fabulous!!!! Brings A new look to this set.......I'm going to have to try that too!!!!!
