Long Awaited Butterfly

I have had my eye on the (then) new Flight Of the Butterfly stamp set since it first appeared in the Fall/Winter idea book. Though I knew I had to have this darling set in my collection, I decided to wait until spring to make the purchase since this is the season when these cute little creatures make their appearance. So, after my new friend in the big brown truck delivered my long awaited treasure, I had to immediately put this set to use.
Once again, the color combination comes from Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration Challenge (#43). The colors are: old olive, brocade blue, pumpkin pie, ruby red and chocolate chip. Aside from the brocade blue, these are colors that I use quite often. A few accents that may not be apparent from the picture are paper piercing on the bottom of the old olive paper, silver centers for the flowers and ruby red ink bordering the whisper white card stock. Have you tried a Color Inspiration Challenge yet?
