Love this Echo Park polka dotted DP. Got it in four different colours I liked it so much - yup, feeding my polka dot addiction all the way LOL! I added some kraft leaves for a bit of contrast and some black pearls for some pop. Couldn't decide on which colour butterfly to use so I used both LOL! Just layered the light pink over the rose ones and got some great dimension. Best of all, I saved three butterflies from going to the black hole of my extra's pile ;)
Busy day ahead as we noticed a shoot growing out of one of our back gutters the other day when we were playing Frisbee in the back yard - not good!! We are thinking the starlings have built a nest somewhere on the back roof and plugged one of our drain pipes, which in turn provided a lovely growing area for some air born seed to take root in. Can you tell we don't look at the gutters in the back very often - oh my! Hopefully the extension ladder will reach up there. Hubby is scared of heights so yours truly gets to go up the ladder with the hose to see what can be done about the issue - oh joy!!
After surviving the aforementioned gutter cleaning adventure, it is off to do my daughter's piano activities (exam and recital) for the rest of the day. Needless to say, I'm looking forward to Sunday afternoon already LOL! Have a great weekend!

I get all excited when I see Butterflies on a project..lol They just add the perfect touch if you ask me. This is so pretty with the colors and the layout. Thanks for joining us at the Friday Mashup.

LOVE your layered butterflies with the darker shade below the lighter color! Great take on the mojo sketch!
BEAUTIFUL!!...LOVE the layered up butterflies!
Glad those 'flies didn't go into the 'black hole'. They're just too pretty. Such a pretty card, too.
Glad the ladder experience is over and you are safe. My hubby recently took his first tumble with a ladder...not a good experience.
The ribbon is so scrumptious and the layered butterflies are fabulous, Marisa! Lovely card!
Oh, your Mojo Diva is on! Awesome colors/scoring/brads/butterflies/textures/pearls/ribbon/Nestie/branch accents! (Did I get them all?) Seriously...a beautiful, happy card!
Congrats on making such a 'winner' of a card!!! Colour me green when I picture you playing with Verve goodies BEFORE they are released! You Diva you! :)
This is wonderful Marisa! So many elements but they all blend wonderfully together. Thank you so much for sharing your talent. Thanks for playing at The Friday Mashup this week.
