Card with New Pastel Plaid Papers

 


Found some challenges today that were perfect for using some of the paper scraps I had saved from a new paper pad I just got from Lawn Fawn.  

Purple is probably one of my favorite colors, especially with yellow, and since it's usually with flowers I tend to choose green a third choice to make this a favorite color combination of mine.  I find it especially pretty when it's in pastel shades!

The start of this card was from a weekly sketch challenge that is part of a Facebook group, but I would also like to join the following challenges:

As You Like It - Favorite color combo and why (see above)

Creative Moments #283 - Pastels or Brights? (see above)

Creative Fingers #325- anything goes

Word Art Wednesday #756/757 - anything goes

Try it on Tuesday - Flying High

Pick 3 Challenge #6 - yellow, sentiment, frame(s)

  5. Melanie, your card is lovely! I love that butterfly. It’s such a beautiful focal point. And I love your gingham background paper. It’s funny because I just saw that at scrapbook.com today. Gingham is one of my favorite patterns. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Word Art Wednesday. We appreciate your participation!
