Lemonade For Sale

I created this card using Kenny K Download's Brooklyn Babe


 I started with a pastel pink card base and added a piece of white cut just slightly smaller than the base.  I embossed two smaller squares of pastel yellow using a dot embossing folder and added them to two opposite corners. I colored the image using Spectrum Noir Pens and backed it in pastel pink card stock.  I layered 2 paper flowers.  The smaller flower is colored using Spectrum Noir's pp1 pen. I added a pretty in pink rhinestone to the center.  I punched butterflies out using a new Martha Stewart punch my hubby bought me for our anniversary last week.  I added three pretty in pink rhinestone to the two opposite white corners.  I added crystal stickles to the image.
