Colour Combos Galore #183

Hello to all my lovely blog readers,

Hope you are all having a great start to your week! Gosh its early but I had a huge day yesterday and I am going to be out again today, so I thought while the rest of the house is still stilling I will catch up on some computer time!

Last Friday revealed another GORGEOUS colour combo at Colour Combos Galore.


Summer Look - The designer challenge was to be inspired by the gorgeous butterfly dress and add butterflies to your page.  Well if you haven't guessed by now, butterflies is something I nearly put on every page, so with a little squeal of delight, I created this. I was loosely inspired by the things hanging down from the ceiling, to the left of the dress, which gave me the idea of my running paint splatters under my big butterfly.


I used a piece of this....Hambly overlay but mine was in white.  Cut out the big butterfly and traced on to black cardstock. There is also a teeny button from Purple Pumpkin in there too.

So there you have it....
Hope you all have a great day.  We have been having some really lovely rain here since Friday I think it was. Great scrapping weather hey!
