FLutter By Wednesday

This week for Flutter By wednesday we were given a sketch and what a fun one it was. I really am lovin' my card - the muted colors and the look of the whole card.
I have to share that the white background of the stamped image was so harsh against the card so I was trying to figure out what I could do to tone it down...and in the process found a new fondness for my CHALKS....I hadn't used those in a year or so...But I colored in my butterfly and used a large brush to tone down the background...cool eh?

I love when I fall back in LOVE with an unused tool.
Has that happened to you in lately?

Don't forget to visit Danni at the BLOG and see all the other wonderful entries...
