It was my turn to host the Stampin B challenge this week and I chose making a monochromatic card! I love making them as it takes one element of thought out of the scheme, that is finding coordinating colors! I used yellow as my color and used summer sun, barely banana, yoyo yellow and so saffron to color my various panels. I may have gotten a little carried away and I do not know if you can see the small daisy stamps from DD Daisy on the main panel, stamped in banana and summer sun. The inside has a little strip of yellow with the Fiskars hearts border punch, and a metal word that says DREAM. My corners are cuttled and have halfpearls added on them, and Martha Stewart butterflies are also sporting pearl bodies! Thanks for looking and please play along, here is a link to our blog : http://stampinbsdesignteam.blogspot.com/
Be sure to use the keyword StampinB so we can find you!

Yellow is one of my fav colors, Nancy. What a beauty you have created. Love your Nesties and the cuttlebug usage. The prima and butterflies with pearls added that extra touch of elegance. Love it, GF! Thanks for hosting a great challenge.
