I combined it with this week's Off The Wall color challenge as I so want spring to come and if nature isn't going to give it to me, then I'm going to create my own little bit of it on a card - so there! - said stomping my feet with my hands on my hips and lower lip sticking out LOL!
Now that my l ittle hissy fit is over, I'll get to the card :) I started off with this fun Paper Salon DP that had all the colours I needed and then pulled out my Verve Petals and Stems set as they are so much fun to pop up :) I scored the background, added some yellow ribbon and filled in the corners with some butterflies - no surprise there!This card also qualifies for this month's Verve Diva Dare - Color Me Spring - score!
