I had fun with this challenge- can you tell? I got out my Technique Junkies listing and found 12/05 Brayered Bleach- with three variations- so I did method three- background plus.
I used Shades Ink- In the Pink HERE. I brayered the ink on over the stamped images and then used bleach in an aqua painter to remove the color. The Butterfly image is HERE. I did stamping with the Ring Around the Rosey border image found HERE- to add background dimension. I added a light touch of Fairy Dust Creative Inspirations paint over the top of each of the butterflies to add shimmer- CI paint is HERE.
The Seam binding just happened to be on my desk left over from a prior project- I do love pink....... I cannot tell you what colors I used to die this.
Happy Birthday-found HERE- is stamped in black and mounted it to mimic the BG of the card- and I added an outline of sewing to finish off the card.

Wow, wow, wow! That is absolutely beautiful, Shelly. I've never tried bleach on a card, but I sure like how you used it here. :)
Love the idea of the brayered background with the stamped image over top. Love how you used the ring around the rosie stamp for an added background. Love the stitching and the black layer brings every thing together. Awesome!!
