Best Wishes

A teacher friend of mine co-ordinates the giving of greeting cards to members of staff at her school. She asks  me to produce them for a variety of occasions. This time it's simply 'Best Wishes' and I have made half a dozen for her.
I made this one with the colours from the Colours and Sketches CAS challenge.
I think it's a really pretty combo and always reminds me of a friend whose house decor had lots of evidence of these shades.
The leaf stamp is from Impression Obsessions and the butterflies are from an SU/Sizzix Embosslits die.
I'm not sure of the make of the sentiment, but it's mounted on a reduced size Papermania slider die.
The embossing on the base panel is from  Sizzix folder.
Many thanks for my Top 3 place on the last CAS colour challenge!
