For today's CAS challenge "A Purple Birthday Celebration". After coloring the image, I die cut it and stamped the sentiment - added a black backing (so the piercing would show up) and popped it up on the embossed base. Ran a purple pen over the embossed/raised border. Dies: Spellbinders/Pierced Rectangle and Imperial gold Rectangle One. Added a pearl to the center of each flower.
I rated it a 4 for difficulty because coloring is still a challenge for me.

This is just gorgeous, Priscilla. The colors on the butterfly are amazing. The embossed and colored frame looks wonderful. Such a happy card...into my favs.
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:6-7

Priscilla,
You would never know that coloring is a challenge for you looking at those beautifully shaded flowers and leaves!! Love the accent of coloring the little square embossing, really sets off the image!!
