Monday Mishap

 Yesterday was my day to put stuff away.  Christmas here, stamps there, paper in the closet, embossing powders and ink pads in the drawer...... I was so pleased to have everything in its place, even though it never stays that way for long, until I spied  one lone strip of plaid paper on the floor.  It must have fallen out of the pack.  I carried it to my table and that's how this card began.

I was trying to channel Bette Manning because I love her cards and these are her favorite colors.  I was pretty pleased with my outcome and decided to do the inside, too.  Everything was looking fine and then I dropped the dauber.  Nooooooooooo!

Can you see the smudge at the top of the photo?

Now what do I do?  I tried a sanding eraser.  Using a tissue, I tried a bit of white ink.  I thought of maybe some random spots in the blue?  I laid out a few flowers but didn't like it.  I could add a gift card pocket and save it for someone to whom I send cash or a gift card?  A single butterfly descending to sit on the flower?

What would Bette do?

For now I will enter this card in a few challenges.  If you have any suggestions on how to fix my goof, please let me know.
