Vicki Dutcher gave the StampinB color challenge this week to make a turquoise, green, and white. Love this combo. I used a Spellbinder's blossom die for cutting out the front center of card and placed a large blossom inside and a smaller on top with the butterfly image. The front of the card is 1" shorter than the back and I used a MS border punch for the bottom. Embossed butterfly and added stickles.
We would love for you to play the challenge with us.

Oooo, Benzi, my fellow Punchkateer--your card does not disappoint in the punchez department!! I love how you punched a blossom-shaped window in your card front. So cool!! You gave such a unique punched treatment to your sentiment label and your MS embossed scallop edge punch/emboss ROCKS!! Excellent work (and planning) to make the scallops come out even on both sides Beautiful use of the StampinB challenge colors. Nicely done. Punch On!!
