When I saw the colors for today's challenge, I wasn't sure if I was going to like them or not, but I really liked how my card turned out. I used black stazon ink and stamped flowers from my clearly inspired floral set onto the blue. I then used colored pencils to color the images in. I added ribbon, but I still felt it needed a little something more, so I made a little butterfly with wire, a bead and pumpkin cardstock. Let me know what you think.
