Fabric Florals

My next piece is for The Play Date Cafe Challenge and I decided on fabric flowers for this weeks colour challenge.
The background is stamped with Tim's text stamp from the Papillon set and embossed in white.
I have created fabric flowers in this weeks colour palette from The Play Date Cafe and added leaves from Claudine Hellmuth.  My butterfly is Tim's mini butterflies set from the Alterations range and I have added the same text to the butterflies body and embossed in white.  I have added a gorgeous butterfly embellishment to add more dimension.
The flowers have been matt onto co-ordinated Bazzil card stock and the edges have been sponged with Distress Ink.  All these products are available from The Stamp Attic.
Gorgeous colour choice this week from Ruby, perfect for this time of year as my poppies are just about to flower.  Enjoy the rest of your weekend, Tracy x x
