On an Olympic bent, I thought I'd show you a picture of what the Olympic Medals look like - in this case the gold medal as Canada is celebrating Alexandre Bilodeau's Gold medal win on Sunday night in the Men's Mogul competition. Click on it to enlarge it - they've done a great job designing them! Alexandre is the first Canadian to ever win Gold when Canada has hosted the Winter Olympics!!! Our family was jumping up and down and screaming when he won, so much so that the poor cat went a runnin' with his tail all puffed out LOL! I had tears streaming down my face when they showed his brother cheering because his brother has Cerebral Palsy and is his biggest fan. What is even more touching is how Alexandre calls his brother his biggest inspiration. Definitely, on on those "Olympic Moments".Thanks for coming by today. Off to watch more Olympics :D

Gorgeous card Marisa, Love the colors and your cute blingy butterfly trail! Such a springy card!!!
Your card is beautiful...a breath of spring!! I'm a celery lover, too (CS, that is). :-) Had to laugh trying to picture your cat going crazy with the wild cheering! So glad you're enjoying the Olympics!
This is beautiful! I love the big butterfly and the trail of bling :)
Super sweet, great soft colors.
Awesome card, Marisa! Love the soft, springlike colors! Totally LOL over the Swiss Dots, too ;)
Oh love this!! So pretty!
This card is so pretty.
Marisa, I love your card! Awesome job of the sketch, love the pretty colours and the butterfly with the bling trial is gorgeous!!!!
Have to say, I'd love to see you watching the Olympics - I bet it's more entertaining than the games themselves!!! LOL!!! Has your poor kitty recovered yet????
I've been watching the Olympics downunder in Australia too! It's a bit warmer here though. It's amazing how a common interest connects us all, keep up the good work, Cheers Robyn
yay, Canada and Alex!! What a great moment...love seeing the interviews with him and his brother too. My brother and sister and families got to see him win at Cypress...they were still pumped when I talked to them Sunday night. My brother got good tickets last year!! Lovely card...love the trail of bling :) Celery is a fabulous colour :)
WOW this is beautiful!!
Gorgeous card - GF!!! This is a wonderful take on the Sketch!!! Love the scoring in the BG and the fun big butterflies!!! ~S~
Thanks for showing the medal up close - I hadn't seen it! Thoroughly enjoying the games and was so glad Alexandre won! Still waiting for Lindsay Vonn to ski!
Beautiful card Marisa. I think the bling looks perfect. Beautiful colours and dp.
I too cried when Alexandre won Gold. I still tear up when I see snippets of him with his brother. And another Gold for Canada today in Snowboard cross! Woohoo!! Although I felt really bad for the US contender for the event :(
Stunning card! The colors are wonderful together. I love those medals, too! Such a great event =)
Beautiful job with the sketch. Love your layers and colors and everything!
Beautiful card...love the scored background piece!
This is absolutely lovely. The colour scheme, the butterfly, the textured background, the layers, the bling... it all comes together perfectly. Thank you for sharing! I'm definitely going to refer back to this one next time I want to make a butterfly card!
