Butterflies & Flowers

Hello Dear Friends!
I don't know about you, but I am SO READY for butterflies and flowers!
I'm not a 'cold weather' person ... and the older I get the more I enjoy the warmth of the sun and the smell of pretty flowers in my garden!  
Geez ... I'm sounding more and more like my mother every day!  LOL

Anyways, today's card is my inspirational SHARE for the Dies R Us Inspiration Blog.


I've used the following dies from the Dies R Us Store on today's card creation: 


I just love both the butterfly and the butterfly corner dies!

  Both are so delicate looking and I really love how the tiny butterflies at the top of the corner die are cut in such a manner that you can lift the wings for dimension!  I've added a touch of diamond Stickles to each little butterfly on the corner die for sparkle & texture.

The Devine Butterfly was actually cut from a scrap of the design paper used for the background on my card.   I then sponged on a bit of Tim Holtz 'salty ocean' & 'picked raspberry' distress inks to achieve the color.  And, lastly covered it with diamond Stickles.  SO PRETTY IRL!!

It's amazing how quickly (and beautifully) a card can come together with just a few die cuts!  Be sure to pop over to the store to find all the new release dies available for purchase.  And remember, if by chance it is 'Out of Stock', just click on the Put Me On The Waiting List button, add your information and you'll be notified by email when it's back in stock.  It truly doesn't take long at all!!
