I dug through my dp and found nothing fitting so I chose to emboss daffodil delight (yellow), used soft suede as my card base and for the butterflies and layering (brown) and copic colored the image with yellow, green, and brown markers.

I, too, have my first set of cards ready to mail to Houston! Will run to the po in just a bit....
This is a wonderful challenge! For my major green element, I used an evergreen DC as it is strong and resilient. I put some yellow daisies in a watering can, echoed in the smiley daisies in the ribbon border. For the brown element, I put a sweet bunny. I added some yellow rickrack, black gingham DP, and two ties with a brad for a little pazazz
I'm still keeping up with the challenges and should be able to for another day or two. This is so much easier than the virtual stamp weekends when we get new challenges every hour.
My Color Challenge card was too easy as I let the paper do the work. Thanks for the challenge Lori.
Loved these warm colors and hope this card will give some patient a little hope! MY CARD

Here is Yellow, Green and Brown Card for HYCCT1107. I always seem to buy birds and music stamps, so I put them together. I'm sending four of these cards. Thanks, Debby
