You're Bound to Bloom!

Hi there! I'm trying to get ready for vacation, but I just can't help finding my way back into the craft room to join in on some of my favorite challenges...like this one! I made this card for the Flourishes Bring Back Beautiful challenge. The theme this month is The Beauty of Summer or Vacation and this one is definitely Summer to me! I think of all the pretty flowers that bloom on my patio and in my gardens when I see this and I love watching the butterflies too!

I used the Spellbinders Rose Creations dies to make this big, beautiful bloom! I also used the HC set for the scroll corner. As for Flourishes, well, the butterfly is from the Butterflies & Blossoms set and the sentiment is from the Hearts & Flowers set! This is one of my favorite color combinations...and the flower color was inspired by Silke's inspiration photo from the last FTTC (127) challenge...although I didn't make it in time to join in! I added some black gem flourishes, a few pearls and a big pearly button for the flower center!

Thanks for taking a peek!
