Todays card is based around the sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches...
I started with the daisy border from Stamplorations inked in hickory smoke Distress Oxide.
I used an ombre effect with mustard seed and carved pumpkin to the 'Sending' die cut to compliment the butterfly.
The rest of the sentiment is from Lawn Fawn.
On the reverse and on the front I've gently blended shades of yellow, orange and red Prisma pencils and used a small amount of red liner tape just under the fat part of his body to adhere to the card.
One down, one more to go.

Beautiful CAS, love how the "Sending" sentiment matches the colours of the beautiful bold butterfly and the contrast with the neutral daisies border looks so classy.
