I just LOVE the challenges here on splitcoast. They really stretch me to think outside my box both with colors and styles. When I looked at the challenge colors this week I was REALLY challenges, but as I've worked with them and seen cards made with them they've really grown on me! I was inspired by this towel http://www.pomegranateinc.com/pomegr...owelsetof2.htm for the sketch. I still had some strips left from a card I'd made with these colors that featured strips Modern Birthday by mamaxsix at Splitcoaststampers so I wove a bottom border. (Also meets another challenge to cross strips!) The butterflies were embossed and cut in the Beautiful Wings embosslit. I had an oops with my greeting so I cut a strip and stamped the greeting on it. Since I was having to use it to save the card I decided it might add some interest to add some score lines. I also glued some strips on the inside of the card as well.
