SC459 HYCCT1322 Wish Big

Photo Details

Poster: hskelly

This is for Bev's HYCCT challenge - sending flowers using today's SC459. This was a lot of layers for me so I had to go with white to keep it as clean as possible. So I embossed the white panels with butterfly embossing folders. I thought the white with black matting would help make the main image panel pop.

So pretty, Harriet! I love the added details of the butterflies on your panels - they just complete the garden feel of this card, and the colors in your background are sure to brighten someone's day. Thank you so much for supporting Hope You Can Cling To!!

You did well with the black matting, Harriet! Your colors are so rich and vibrant and show up so beautifully against the whites~
