This is for TeresaÂ’s HYCCT Challenge to do a Freestyle Collage. Doing a collage is completely out of my comfort zone. However, I wanted to explore this technique and be free to just create. I reached into my scraps drawer and just grabbed. Out came: a thank you tag from years ago, a flower, a button, and paper for punching butterflies. I had a background made during HYCCT that I did not use. I sponged more greens at the bottom, distressed the edges and sponged with Chocolate Chip. Then I glued down all the elements into hopefully a pleasing arrangement. It was fun. Thanks for looking.

Oh yes! This is very pleasing Diane! I love how the greens are carried from the tag to the background. The over stamped printing on the main panel adds lots of interest. What could be better than butterflies and a flower? Your metallic heart in the middle of that flower is the perfect final touch. Lovely card!
