Beautiful as a bird's song

This card is for Color dare 103 'very tempting pears' - to use very vanilla, tempting turquoise and pear pizzazz.

And on Crazy 4 challenges 90 there is this photo inspiration - I've chosen to concentrate on the bottom part:

The image was cut from the bottom right corner of a 12 z 12 DCWV paper from their Mariposa stack - this is for 365 cards day 82 'caught in a corner' (yes, I'm still catching up with some of the old challenges). I distressed the edges with shabby shutters and a slight hint of stormy sky DIs.

The main background paper is majolaine hazelnut dacquoisa (lol! notice that it has my 'hazelnut' name on it) and the strip across the bottom and the sentiment were cut from a piece of We R MK vintage blue.

This is also for:

Flutterby Wednesday 157: open + butterfly
My mum's craft shop 8: things with wings
Crafty calendar for June: things with wings
Charisma cardz 22: something that flies

    Hello Hazel.
    I have popped over again this week from MIM to view your entry,and I have to say the use of the blues and greens with your Accent of White has made a beautiful, peaceful and soothing card.
    Smiles:)
