Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab

Aside from anything taupe, one of my all time favorite color combos is this one:
...the colors of this week's Tuesday Trigger at Moxie Fab. I just love yellow and light blue together. What inspired me from the photo was the vertical element of the yellow doors, the tracery on the glass of the doors and the blue element peeking in from the low right. The butterfly net next to the door made the embellishment of choice a no-brainer :) Here's my card: (It's been raining most of the day here in the Northeast, so forgive my dark photos)
 Here's a close up:
materials: cardstock: Bazzill; patterned papers: Echo Park, Crate, October Afternoon; sticker, butterflies: Echo Park; pearls: Martha Stewart; ribbon (my pal Jan :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Really like the way your blue paper resemble the swing door panels of the trigger. Love for you to link it up to my challenge here http://angsandy.blogspot.com/2011/03/sandys-challenge-3.html
