I named this card Almost, because it is the closest I could come. I have never done the cc because, I don't have SU cardstock. Now you can all say awhhh. and give me a pity party. All I can afford for colored cardstock is bulk scraps that I can buy at Walmart. Gasp. I said the W word. However, I really want to be challenged to use different color combinations, so I'm asking you all to forgive my poor little almost card. It is not it's fault. I also tried to alter yesterday's TLC166 of the double opening card. I changed it from a square card to a rectangle card. Let me know what you think.

I love this card and you shouldn't feel bad because you have to use less expensive CS, it allows you to participate and that is all that matters. Enough said. I love the butterflies and the way you folded the corner with that awesome charm and all the dots are fabulous on this.

Your colors are so close, MariLynn...and I like your design! When I began, I had no SU papers either, slowly I have gotten most of them, but I also am always checking what I have in my stash to be a good steward of my stock. so keep at the CC...I applaud you!

Very pretty! I love the butterflies and turned back corner! You and I were on the same wavelength with combining the challenges and making a rectangular card!

This is very nice! Isn't that what crafting is about....tapping into your creative side and making it come alive? It's not the products but the creator and the results that excote me!
You did a great job on this!
