My Craft room is my favorite room in the house. The walls are painted with two different lavenders, one light, one dark. We used the Wall Magic on them. The trim is done in white gloss. I have lavender sheers as window treatments with white blinds.
Anyway, here is my card. I didn't want to hide the bg, so I kept the embellies to a minimum. I sponged two different SU lavenders for the bg....just like my walls. I added sheer white ribbon with white butterflies and gemstones. I stamped the sentiment with Versamark and heat embossed with white ep. Very minimalist card!
What do you think?

Very pretty! Lavendar is such a beautiful color and like how you finished off with the pretty white butterflies.
