Hi! This card was made for today's Inspiration Challenge: Better Homes & Gardens Citrus-Colored Living Room. Here is a photo of the room.
When I looked at the photo, all I could think about was Markie's big remote controlled dragon fly. It's HUGE! And, the wings are yellow and orange! That thought lead to the memory of Speedy the Cat laying on his back ON TOP of that Dragon Fly! I looked like Speedy the Cat had turned into a CATerfly! LOL!
So, I decided to use this butterfly set from There She Goes for today's challenge. The butterfly was embossed in white and colored in using Copic Markers. Next, it was cut out.

WOW! Faith, the sentiment just fell in my lap...You are welcome and I have been spreading my wings all week to the point that they gave me the key/alarm code for the Clothes Closet. I just met the lady too. Trust in the Lord. On to your card. It is beautiful! The colors are so nice, bright, and the butterfly is perfect!
