My card is based on the color challenge at The Play Date Cafe. I knew I wanted to incorporate the butterflies with the chevron pattern into my card....just needed to decide on a color scheme. The bright colors of challenge caught my eye. I chose Hollyhock, Honey and Sunset for my colors. I stamped my butterflies in second generation ink with the solid shape. I then stamped in first generation ink with the polka dot background. I hand cut the butterflies out and mounted on coordinating cardstock. My banners were cut with the Cricut Artiste cartridge and then stamped with the chevron border stamp. I added Bakers twine for the antenna and a little bling to finish off my card.
