Peach Parfait is not typically the color I reach for (um, that would be PINK!), but it worked for me here. Based on Freshly Made Sketches
#40, I started with an ivory base (
Gina K pure luxury cardstock), SU Sunny Garden designer paper matted in Peach Parfait and wrapped with a Certainly Celery ribbon. Then I used Nestabilities dies (oval and lacey oval) for the focal image, stamped with Gina K's One in a Million and Petals and Wings (sentiment) stamps. Instead of putting the sentiment on the banners (SU Bitty Banners) in the lower left, I put a butterfly from the SU butterfly embosslit and embellished with ivory pearls.
This is the sketch:
And, I have to say, while I don't really leave a lot of comments on blogs or expect comments on mine,when the gals from Freshly Made Sketches left comments on my last cards, it did make me smile! A very nice group to play along with! Thanks, Ladies!
