This is my sample for CC936. I am your hostess this week and I chose blackberry bliss, bumblebee and mossy meadow for my color trio. Dessert option this week is flowers.
I decided to go with a fun fold design this week. It's an easel card and there is a tutorial here on SCS- click here. My background is a card base from the Sweet Sunflowers Paper Pumpkin kit from Stampin' Up. I cut it apart and then layered with bumblee and blackberry bliss cardstock.
The inside of the card I layered with bumblee designer paper from the Stampin' Up "simply marbleous" collection.
My butterfly is cut in blackberry bliss cardstock and designer paper from the Stampin' Up "oh so ombre" collection. I used the same paper for the congratulations phrase. I was able to be a different gradient by using different sections of the designer paper.
That's my card for this week. I am anxious to see the gallery this week. After all flowers seem to be everyone's favorite in this challenge. (LOL)!!!

Fabulous easel card. I like how the die-cut sentiment is the stopper for the top panel to rest against. Gorgeous paper! The butterfly is a lovely accent. Beautiful card. Wonderful color combo. Love the dessert. The gallery will be blooming this week!
