This is my card for today's color challenge with the out going incolors....I tried many different things and this is what I came up with....not really liking it, but this is it...I'm sure you understand....
I embossed the red and cut three strips to layer on the card front. Stamped three butterflies in orange and kiwi, cut them out and popped them on curly label punches of the same color. I stamped the sentiment in red, cut it out with the oval scallop punch and popped it in the center.
Thanks for the challenges....and thanks for looking at my card!

I think it's very catching! I probably should have played with this years colors more, lol, but all I could see and use were the blues and Pink Pirouette!

I totally love how you matted the sentiment with two different color scalloped ovals- just brilliant- really makes the words stand out. Wonderful! TFS!
