I started off with a totally different piece, planning to combine the two, but ended up setting the other aside and going in a completely different direction from my original plans. My DD suggested a backdrop the color of my sponge, which was somewhere between blush blossom and apricot appeal, so that's how I chose that color to go with my blues.
The flowers and butterflies are stamped with stazon and sponged with tempting turquoise and ballet blue, cut out and then the edges are sponged with brilliant blue. I added some white dots in the centers of the flowers.
