Good Saturday morning everyone!!! It has been raining here for a few days and boy, is everything growing!!! Our grass is green again and we actually had to mow in between showers....I just hope it stays like this for a couple of weeks so our lakes will fill back up!!! My cousin and his wife from Iowa have been visiting for a few days...they brought their golf clubs but couldn't play. I know they are a little bummed especially since they are going home tomorrow. Ya know it will be sunny and warm the day after they leave...LOL!!! Anyway....I made this card a few days ago but didn't have the time to upload what with working and visiting. A retired Stampin Up! background stamp called Riot of Petals was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa and colored with copics. The sentiment is from Layers of Color's Gifts of Love set and the punched butterfly finishes it off.....it's pretty simple but perfect for mailing!!!
This is also for a few challenges:
1. Annabelle Stamps Challenge - use background stamps
2. Card Makin Mamas - Happy Birthday
3. Crafty Ann's Challenge blog - bold and bright
4. C.R.A.F.T Challenge - no designer paper
5. Cute Card Thrusday - flower power
Thanks for stopping by...have a wonderful weekend!!!

Joan, this is STUNNING!!! Love the colours, so expertly executed. I have had this stamp since it first came out...I will be inking it up. Thanks for the inspiration and for sharing your gorgeous card!
I hope it rains for some time too. It sure is nice to see some green out there...even if a lot of that green is weeds ;)
Have a great week-end!
It's a beautiful card without all the adornment. I love it and think I might dig mine out and ink it up. It has never seen ink. Your coloring on this one makes the card and love the butterfly.
Joan, this is simply gorgeous. I love the beautiful, clean lines. Your coloring is just delightful, my friend! Love it!
Beautiful flowers and love the touch of the butterfly on here. So pretty.
