CR84FN Color Challenge #32



Hello and thanks for stopping by today!  My card  features paper from the K&Company PoppySeed mat pad. When I saw the new colors for the challenge this paper came to mind immediately!


The base for my card is a soft yellow cardstock from Archiver's (My WONDERFUL local scrapbooking/stamping store).The die cuts are Papertrey Ink with the exception of the tiny tag and that is a Martha Stewart punch. This fabulous flower is from Prima Marketing...it actually had tiny snowmen in the center button portion. Perfect color, wrong season!!! So I popped it off, glued some paper over it, inked the edges with aqua and lime green ink, then gently rolled the tiny acrylic butterfly stamp over it (I'm loving it!!!). The fluttery butterflies on the tiny tag are from Judith and the sentiment is Rubber Moon. A few aqua crystals for pizazz and I have a cute summery card ready for mailing!

Your paper is just perfect for this challenge! LOVE that you customized the button on your flower--how clever! And I am green with envy that you can shop at Archiver's. I loved it when I lived in Ohio but have none here on the East Coast!
