I've combined a Sweet Sunday sketch challenge and Inkspirations Colour Challenge.



And Yes another butterfly card sorry, no more for a while. I really struggled with this colour combo but I'm happy how it turned out. The grass came out a bit wish washy (used marker and then embossed) .... but I'm happy with the look, it's all embossed.


Card Recipe:
SU Cardstock: Certainly Celery, Pumpkin Pie and Very Vanilla
SU Stamps: Great Friends, Wild about you (flower) and Pocket Silhouettes.
SU Inks: Bashful Blue, Pumpkin Pie and Certainly Celery.
SU Other: Ribbon and Brad from the new Mini Cattie.
