Blue Butterfly.....

Good morning everyone.  We are having lots of rain here this morning after having thunderstorms overnight.  Spring is here!  Here we are at Monday and starting a brand new week and I'm here to share with  you a card I made using some pretty paper and a Heartfelt Creations die.  (HCD1 713  Decorative Lace Border Die).  I love this die and use it a lot of different ways.  Here I have just the edges peeping out on the edges of my card face.


I cut out one of the butterflies on the pretty paper and used Wink of Stella to give it some shine and I added color to the flowers using Ranger Distress Ink.  Now my card is ready to go.
 
That's all for me this morning.  Hope you have a good day and that you remember to take a moment just for you and "Breathe"!

Such a beautiful card and all Spring-like! Love it! I came to re-visit you on a comment you gave on an old woyww-post (it was April 8 I think...) OhMy... I keep running behind on things - but it is nice to discover other posts on the blogs of people I visit much later - it gives another look into your creative life and I like that! Happy day to you, hug from HOlland, Marit

Those yellow flowers are such a fresh pop of color against the pretty papers, and the shimmery butterfly fluttering nearby is perfect. You always use the prettiest dies, Glenda, and the borders you created are beautiful.
