Soft Hues

Happy Monday to everyone!  Are you all set for the Lurve day tomorrow?? Got your cards at the ready girls??  I remember when I was young in Canada it was the custom to give all your friends cards so you used to get a lot of cards and I remember one little boy saying "Aw I gave all my cards to dames"!!  That's well over half a century ago but I can still remember him saying it and his name - Philip Hodgkiss and he had loads of freckles on his cute little face.  Gosh I am waffling on. Anyway the card today is one I have done in softer colours:

I thought I would go for a more feminine one after the last few days.  The image is Bildmalarna called I picked some flowers which has been coloured with Copics and a touch of Prisma Pencils.  I have used Nesties to cut the image out and matted her on a new Nestie called Teardrop Circles.  The doily is from a Cheery Lynn die called French Pastry and I must say it cut out very well.  The butterflies are Martha Stewart punch and have Stickles on them.  The papers are First Edition from the Spring Feast pad.  Ribbon and charm from my stash.  The border dies inside and out are both new from the fair last week and are Tonic and are so easy to punch I didn't have to resort to using my foot like I normally do!!  Here is the inside:

I have used the punched out butterflies up the side to add a bit of interest. I would like to enter the following challenges:
