http://colourcreatechallenge.blogspot.com/2011/08/challenge-77.html - Use Blue, Green, White, Red & Brown with Texture

I have entered alot of challenges and this will also work for http://makeitmonday.blogspot.com. I used the cuddlebug for the white texture background and placed a yellow circle and on top of that a patterned tissue paper that has butterflies on it. I just used the one butterfly for effect...but it is tissue paper! I took green cardstock for the top band and I punched out the flowers and the smaller butterflies and the 2 leaves in the bottom corners (actually they are from another flower punch out and that is the remaining left overs from the flowers). Of course I used glitter in orange for the 2 big flowers and red glitter for the red middle flower and the little butterflies in the corner. I also used light green for the little leaves. I used a brown ribbon-it was silky on either end and see through in the middle so I cut the ribbon to place the 2 silken parts on the edge of the green cardstock and I actually made a ribbon from the middle part which I placed near the bottom. I finished off the circles in brown stickles and light blue pearls. I think I meet the colours for Colour Create...and Crafty Creations and it is summery since the colours meet summer and who sees a butterfly in the winter unless one is in the Dominican (Think about January and shovelling snow). Hey, after the past week, this weekend was eventless. Everyone have a great day...and week!
