Mary is our hostess this week, and she has given us the option of five soft and sweet colors. We can use three or all five, with white as a neutral color. I used Coastal Cabana, Hello Honey, Crisp Cantaloupe, Pistachio Pudding and White. I skipped the brown color and also skipped dessert this week.
I broke out my new-to-me MFT horizontal stitched strips and used them for the first time, and I love the look they provide. Then I created a cascade of flowers and leaves, molded them a bit, and stuck them on. I wasn't sure whether to use the butterfly or not--and where to put it--but then I saw a smudge of Coastal Cabana, so that dilemma was answered pretty quickly!!!
Thanks for stopping by, and please join us in this week's Color Challenge.

Lovely spray of flowers in such pretty colours. I agree - that stitched die you used for the background is something rather special - will have to add them to my every increasing "wish list".

Lovely card, Barbara......your new dies make for an original bg and your "lazy S" spray of flowers looks so pretty on it. The butterfly if perfectly placed....smudge or no smudge.
