ok yesterday somebody said, "It is what it is". this is the 5th time I have changed this card today, so, it is what it is...I coloured both images using old olive and daffodil delight. after cutting all the papers and using die cuts, I sponged the edges with old olive... placed butterfly on dimensionals, added stickles and pearls....DONE finally...
Thanks for taking a peek... Hope you like it...

Clearly all of your work was worth it, this card is BEAUTIFUL!!! I love all of the delicate details, and it is a card anyone--especially a flower lover would love to receive.
I've been through some frustrating times putting together cards--usually in the end I like the card more after being forced to make some changes. Perhaps it helps me learn to "go with the flow more", at any rate, I understand and sympathize with your frustration. But what resulted is one lovely card--you put together one that really touches me, love the delicate nature of this card, really special!
Best wishes to a fellow Canadian too, how nice to see that Canadian flag!!!
