This was such a fun card to make. My husband and I are getting away to the beach for four days this weekend, and I plan on tucking this card into his bag.
I started with Rox's sketch challenge Forums at Splitcoaststampers and last week's color challenge Forums at Splitcoaststampers. My card base is Bordering Blue. Panel 2 is some Bella Birds dp. Panel 3-a is a 1 3/8" Pink Pirouette square, a 1 1/4" So Saffron square and then my Love You square. (Each layer is separated with a Dimensional.) Panels 3-b and 3-c are a 1 3/8" Bordering Blue square and a 1 1/4" Pink Pirouette square. I stamped three butterflies with Jet Black StazOn ink on Whisper White cs and colored them with my Bordering Blue, Pretty in Pink and So Saffron markers. Two were added to these panels with Mini Glue Dots and the third was added to the ruffled ribbon. I added Dazzling Diamonds to the butterflies and flower's center for some extra dazzle.

Oh, Regina, your hubby will love this one. In fact, I love this one. Those b/flies are gorgeous with all that sparkle and I love that ribbon treatment. I haven't tried that one yet. Great job! TFS!
