I was thrilled when Betty asked me to be a guest designer for the Color Challenge during May. She gave us some lovely colors to work with today:
Cherry Cobbler
Crumb Cake
Basic Black
Ivory/white are only neutrals
The dessert was to add sparkle and shine.
This was a great opportunity to try out some new supplies....stamps, EP. backgrounder. The grasses are a backgrounder stamp that I think will be very versatile(I saw grasses for this card). The Judikins EP has a pinkish iridescent quality...which for once, seemed to photograph quite well!

Sallie, your card is beautiful!! What a nice job you did coloring your butterflies. I'm not sure if your purposely had a fading out of the colors on the butterfly that is on the right,...purposeful or not it really looks realistic. I love your sparkly grasses; they look magical. Very nice!! :>)
