DTC #190 - 3-2-1 Recipe "For Someone Special"

This is my Design Team project for Double Trouble #189 using the 3-2-1 Recipe "For Someone Special" (3-Layers, 2-Colors, 1-Background using Patterned Paper) and Twisted Sister's optional twist to include flowers. Our Sister Challenge, Try a Sketch on Tuesday #669, which starts on Apr 20th is the perfect sketch to include with our 3-2-1 recipe. However, my card will not be entered in TSOT challenge due to the backlinking rule but used as an example of combining the two challenges for interested participants.  

Since the recipe called for 1-background ingredient using patterned paper my first choice was a pink patterned paper which I randomly stamped on some pansy colored florals giving me the 2-Color ingredient. Another lighter piece of the same patterned paper was cut for the sentiment. It wasn't hard to meet the 3-layer ingredient by bordering the patterned background and sentiment using pansy cardstock. Adhered bordered background to the white card base.

Instead of the flower on the corner of the sentiment one of the dancing butterflies was cut two times using pansy cardstock. Tne first adhered to the front of the sentiment panel and the second placed loosely to the back of the panel to create a shadow of the other wing. Then the sentiment and second wing were adhered to the background. Had another dancing butterfly that was placed on the inside corner.
