Joanne chose Soft Suede, Melon Mambo, Crumb Cake, and Vanilla as the neutral for CC329 this week. The dessert option was to incorporate butterflies. I chose this beautiful butterfly image from ODBD for my card sample. The image is colored with Copic markers. A matching butterfly impression plate from ODBD was used on the Melon Mambo strip behind the image, but it is difficult to see in the photo. The berries have a dab of Glossy Accents and pearls were added to the border punch. A bit of lace and ribbon finish off the card. I loved working with these warm colors. Thanks for looking!

What a pretty image and inspired use of the challenge colors...this reminds me of a picture my son sent from Japan of the petals at the cherry blossom festival in Kyoto. Lovely embellies and papers, poignant sentiment and stunning card all around.
