A wonderful bright pallet chosen by Keesh today and one that had green so I was happy LOL! I combined it with one of Chupa's older Sketch and Stamp sketches. 
With the overload of Christmas cards lately, I thought it would be fun to go in a spring/summer direction this time. Absolutely LOVE this sentiment and every time I read it I remind myself to speak the kind words I am thinking of and not just leave them in my mind. I know I sure appreciate a kind word, and in a world that tends to focus on the negatives of life, it is always nice to get some positives to help you along in your day :)
The rest of the Design Team has some fabulous cards for your inspiration.

This is wonderful Marisa! The soft print DSP makes the butterfly really pop & the patterned ribbon is sweet. Love the subtle interest the piercing adds to the layout. Beautiful sentiment too. :)
Ah, one of my very favorite sentiments, so very true! I love what you've done with the colors, Marisa...this card reminds me of a beautiful Spring day, with lots of vibrant flowers...and sweet butterflies! Love that paper piercing at the bottom too, what a great effect to have it outline the shaped edge. Fabulous!
Oh that is an awesome colour combo! I'm digging out some florals stamps for this one too!
Your card is wonderful! Love all the dimension from those die cuts!!!
How pretty Marisa!! LOVE that sentiment! xxx
Hi Marisa! I hope your Thanksgiving holiday was wonderful! This is one of my favorite word sayings from Verve. I like how you added texture to the butterfly and layered it over the leaves!
Such true words. :) Well, let me leave you a kind word about your card! I am happy you chose to look ahead to spring, by using a pretty yellow butterfly. I don't have nearly the amount of Christmas cards I need, but am tired of them already. LOL It's refreshing to see something other than Xmas. And do I spy Groovy Guava dp??
A refreshing change of pace card that reminds us spring will be here eventually! Beautiful!
You've given us a good lesson today, Marisa, along with a beautiful card. We sure need a lot more kindness in this world.
Love your card. I adore that gingham ribbon and the soft,yellow butterfly is a beauty.
