PDCC #78 - Growing In Unity Day #5





Hello, friends:}
I've got lots to share...first up....It's my week of Growing in Unity!! Be sure to stop by each day {April 17-23} and leave some love for your chance to win several prizes!! Become a follower for an extra entry!! Gotta love prizes!! 
Today also starts another beautiful color story over at The Play Date Cafe. OH! Just love this color palette! And this inspiration photo by Julie Ranae is FABBBBY! We are going red, pink, and baby blue this week! I used my Unity Life Becoming set for the butterfly. I embossed it on transparency. The baby blue polka dot paper is a digi from Nina Bracket. LOVE it! I also used my Unity April KOTM {Small Things Matter Most} for the sentiment. I love that twine [light pink and red] holding the button on the seam binding bow--overall...I LOVE it! 
Not sure you can tell--but that smaller polka dot paper is light pink-S.E.I. Happy Day paper.


ETA--UPDATE:::Because I had an overwhelming response to my CAS frame [before picture to the left]--I edited it to add a light blue butterfly on transparency {Unity's Small Things Matter Most}. I also added a large light pink gem. I think this matches the PDCC challenge colors this week PERFECTLY! LOVE it! 



Not sure if you can see the colors well--but I promise you that it matches the PDCC colors in real life! Sometimes the camera doesn't catch that! Eh!

I love your color combo card Savannah. SO pretty. Love the polka dots! And that butterfly is amazing. I think I have the same one. I might have to try stamping it today!
I think the little blue butterfly on the frame really adds a nice touch. It looked great plain, but is enhanced perfectly with the flutterby!
