A big thanks to Jenny for reminding me to post this today. I was all set to put it up tomorrow which would have been a day late for the CAS-ual Fridays Bold and the Beautiful challenge to use black and pastels. It would, however, have been a day early for the Less Is More Take Three Challenges challenge. Clearly my mind was somewhere in between... The LIM challenges I used are:
Week 5 - Pastel Colours
Week 15 - Embossing
Week 16 - Butterflies

GORGEOUS! I love the idea of looking out the window at those butterflies going by...especially since outside my window today it's -7C and piles of snow. GROSS.
So cool! The pastel/black combo is really inspiring me this week! I love the black window frame with the white embossed sentiment! It just draws your eye to those beautiful butterflies. Totally creative approach to the color combo:)
How pretty - the butterflies are just lovely and I think the sentiment is perfect!
FAB card and such a cool idea
