Happy Saturday....I have one card to share today, it is for the current challenge over at
Colour Me...! At first I really struggled with the colors, I have lots of rejects in my recycle bin to prove it. So after spending some time thinking about how to make the colors work I came up with this. I love these butterfly dies from PTI and thought they might look nice layered. I was having trouble finding something gold to add to my card and found these Kaiser pearls floating around, I love the way they look. Thank you so much for taking time to stop by...enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Ingredients
