OK, before you scratch your head too long over the title of this card, I made this in honor of our Queen for the Day Terri whose screen name here is Brat Cards. This is the card I chose to CASE Breast Cancer Tiles WT345 by Brat Cards at Splitcoaststampers. Because I love blue, and because they are this week's challenge colors and I have them stuck in my brain, I went with White, Pool Party and Island Indigo. I also was in the mindset of repeating images from yesterday's ways to use it challenge. The textured-looking inchies were made by running a piece of Island Indigo through my crimper several times, alternating direction then they were somewhat smoothed out with my bone folder before I punched the 1" squares. I sponged the edges of these and the white square with Island Indigo. My butterfly squares were stamped first with stamped off Island Indigo in the script and also with Pool Party spatter. I then stamped the butterflies in Island Indigo and sponged the edges in Pool Party. These were adhered to a Pool Party base on which I stamped the greeting. I added a ribbon/gem accent a little lower than Terri's because I couldn't fit it without covering a butterfly.

This is SO pretty! Those colors look beautiful in a quilt. I like how you sponged the lighter blue around the darker butterflies. That is a cool crimping technique as well. I will need to try that. I'm so honored to see you play along. ;)
