Ok, I admit, this is one of my favorite cards ever. Gotta love the giant butterfly.

And this one...is not my favorite. Well, they can't *all* be winners. So that's it for the Flashback, here's today's new card:
You can see I kinda love that little "Just because" stamp :) And I had to give the World Treasures peacock a little more love since he's on his way to blissful retirement in Jamaica. That peacock panel was a pain though; I had three different tries at polished stone and one try at doing something on watercolor paper before this one kind of worked. The Old Olive ink refill muddied the Bermuda Bay too much when I tried to use them together for polished stone, Bermuda Bay was too dark by itself, but Bermuda Bay plus Coastal Cabana seemed to work okay.
I used almost the right colors for this week's Color Throwdown:
I accidentally used Old Olive instead of Lucky Limeade; this is what happens when I try to do color challenges from memory. I think the Old Olive is close enough for me to be safe from the Challenge Police though. I also used this week's Retro Sketch:
That one I stuck pretty close to, except all my card elements are bigger than they are on the sketch.
And now it's time for me to dive in with the new In Colors and have some fun. My fingers are already stained blue and green, so I'm a happy stamper!
Cheers, peeps!

Always love seeing polished stone on a card! This is a beautiful use of the throwdown colors! Thanks so much for playing along with us this week!
I love the bee card, but I also really like the one with leaves. It could be for either a man or a woman and the colors are fantastic.
I love the peacock card! Just beautiful!
