Mariposa

This is my entry for the Take A Word challenge this week where the color 'Orange' is the theme.  I can't help but think of sunny Mexico and the lavish rustic hues of oranges, fiery reds and cooling turquoise.  Frida from Artchix studio, elements from Tangie Baxter and assorted butterflies (Mariposas).
