I combined two challenges. The color challenge is using the colors I listed and the teapot Tuesday challenge is for Jane who needs a bit of encouragement.
I chose to use an older embossing folder designed by Stephanie Bernard for Sizzix (when they worked together before the lawsuit). I watched a video with Dini about coloring the embossing folder. I used the only blender pen I own and colored each butterfly, then came back and added more color with the Crafter's Companion Sparkle Pen. I let it sit for a day, then added the greeting and butterflies. These butterflies were cut using a Scrapbook dot com butterfly set, Nesting Butterflies. I think it was free with purchase. I added gems to the body with rhinestones from my stash; purchased from the clearance rack when Pretty Peacock retired a few years ago. It is fun to find matching gems in my stash.
I will add something to the inside and the envelope then it will be out the door to Jane.

That is the sweetest embossing folder .... your coloring of the tiny butterflies gives this such a happy, upbeat look .... just the thing to bring cheer to Jane!
