This card is for the Sketch Challenge and the Color Challenge: Blackberries and Pears Poolside. I don't have a blackberry ink pad so I had to substitute Rich Razzleberry; although I did have some Blackberry cardstock for one of the layers. The Painted Blooms DSP had both colors. This is my first time to use the Blackberry color; I might like it. A long-retired stamp set, Garden Collage was my choice today. My favorite embellishment as dessert for the color challenge is "sparkle". I used glitter on the butterfly and flowers; and there's a rhinestone by the sentiment. Fun challenges! TFL

What you created as your top layer is fabulous. You've brought some neat media together in a beautiful way. Very special card. I like the 'just because' sentiment too.

Very very pretty! I remember that stamp, and it didn't appeal to me when it was in the catalog. Wish I had it now...I love how you added soft color and sparkle!
