I made this card yesterday for the FS206 Challenge and the Twisted Sisters TSC0114 challenge (use purple, yellow, and a punch), but I was too tired to load it at the end of the day.
WhoisTracy has a fresh and fun style, and I love her use of Kraft. I changed the colors, added a sentiment, and added gems to the butterfly. I also sponged a lot - I sponged the butterfly and all the layers.
I also had to play in the Twisted Sisters Challenge because they added a punch to the requirements and I love to punch! I used the slot punch to make the white border. That was the only punch I used but I used it multiple times.

Gorgeous card, Nancy. I love how you made a beautiful card with a subtle look with the craft paper and how you stamped the bg paper. Thanks so much for joining us in this TSC.

Wow, Nancy, super case with a whole new outlook on life with those colors!! Looks like crushed curry with the razzleberry - a winning combination by themselves, but using the kraft gives it a whole new look!! Love how you accented the butterfly and his flight with the gems, and added that faux stitching too!!
BELIEVE is one of my favorite one word sentiments!

I love how the distress inking on this card gives it such a vintage flair. Pretty butterfly and bling flourish add to the overall appeal to this darling card.
