I created this card for two challenges: QFTD04 (Snail is queen for the day) and the color challenge.
I cased this beautiful card by snail: FEB10VSNC Marbelous by snail at Splitcoaststampers
I liked her layout and silhouettes so I went with those features but changed the technique (snail did the marble technique and I brayered), the colors and I added a die cut corner and stamped a butterfly.
I love these colors - as soon as I saw them I thought of a really pinkish sunset.

What exquisite brayering, Harriet! Takes my breath away...your whole card! Love the little scroll in the upper corner to balance the butterfly and foliage in the lower left. Just beautiful!
