Summer Silhouettes Warmest Wishes Birthday Card - Inkpirational Challenge #18

It's a new month so we're starting our challenge rotation all over again at Inkspirational which means  we're kicking May off with a colour combo challenge.

Tammy from Creatively Me is our sponsor for May and here is the fab prize that's she's very kindly giving away to our May monthly winner.

I have to be honest and say I didn't really fancy the colours together when I first saw the challenge prompt picture but as I worked on the card I realised what a striking combo it makes! I've used the SU! colours Elegant Eggplant, Old Olive and Peach Parfait with Very Vanilla as a neutral.  I dug out the Peach Parfait paper that came from the SU! Everyday Enchantment pack and glued that to the front of my 5 3/4" square Old Olive card base.  I stamped the leaves, flowers and sentiment onto a Very Vanilla panel and layered onto Peach and Eggplant mats.  I punched the butterflies and fixed them together with a brad that matches the patterned paper and attached the butterfly element to a strip of Eggplant ribbon.  I taped a strip of the ribbon to the bottom part of the card and added a bow to complete the card front.

Here's the inside and envelope.

The other DT members will have made great creations to inspire you so please check them out before joining in with this colour combo challenge - I can't wait to see what you make!
