Aloha and welcome to another wonderful Wednesday with
365 Cards! This week our focus is on the backgrounds of our cards and today's challenge is to split your background in to 4th's and make 2/4's patterned paper (doesn't have to be the same patterned paper) and 2/4's solid paper (again doesn't have to be the same). Well, I kept mine simple and used the same patterned paper and solid paper in my background. I found this SEI butterfly paper in my stash and thought it went perfectly with this image from Floppy Latte Designs. Kinda hard to tell in the picture (sorry I couldn't get the Early Espresso paper to edit better in PSE) but I also dry embossed all of the background papers (can't remember the name of the Cuttlebug embossing folder, sorry again!). I also changed the color of the image from black to brown and used just a little Copics on the wings.
Here's the other challenges I was inspired by for this one:
1.

3. CardPatterns - sketch
4. Sassy Studio Designs - CAS

Aloha,
