Thinking of You - CCMC 148

Another color challenge card, this time with Create with Connie & Mary at this location
The colors:  Perfect Plum, So Saffron, and Wild Wasabi.  I also used Very Vanilla.

I had several images in mind when I saw the color combination, but settled on this card, making a background collage of the colors on shiny card stock and then stamping a background image on it.
The butterflies were stamped using the rock and roll technique and hand cut.
Stamps:  Fine Flourish, Strength & Hope, On the Grow
Inks: Perfect Plum, So Saffron, Wild Wasabil, Black Stazon
Papers: Wild Wasabi, Very Vanilla, Perfect Plum, Glossy Card Stock
Accessories: Framed tulip embossing folder, 1/8" very vanilla taffeta ribbon (colored with Wild Wasabi ink), Scallop punch, Work Window Punch, Modern Word Label Punch, Pearls, dimensionals, glue dots
