For today's colors: Primrose, Cameo, White. I have no Primrose so I used Ruby Red as it's a Dynamic Duo with Cameo Coral. I used the shaving cream technique on the outside die, stamped the butterflies in coral, stamped off once then kissed with another stamp and added pearls. I chose not to add desert since I had a really hard time with these colors. Thanks for stopping by today! ~Roberta

Shaving cream and kissing. What a fabulous combination, Roberta. Makes me remember watching my Dad shave in the bathroom when I was oh so little!!

Well you may have had a hard time, but it sure doesn't show! I love the way you mixed the two colors on your frame and then kissed your butterflies too! So pretty!

Roberta, I'm behind on commenting, but had to come visit your color challenge card. WOW, what a great effect with the shaving cream. I did that once a LONG TIME AGO! This is very creative and I LOVE your b/flies. Colors are amazing. Great job - Hey, does the plant in the b/g come with the card????

Gotta try that shaving cream thing. It really looks fabulous on your frame, Roberta, and sets off the text print on the butterflies! Beautiful!

This is so beautiful Roberta!! You did a fantastic job with the shaving cream technique (my Mom's favorite technique to do)! It looks soooooooo good with your flowers and butterflies.
