This is my card for the challenge. I have limited access to things to use so I did the best I could. I colored the sunflower with an aquapainter and watercolor crayons. Then I did the cracked glass technique on it. I mounted it on a black top note with a small border of mustard behind it. I added Hello and a butterfly. The butterfly is punched out with two small hearts for the second layer. I added little diamond chips on the butterfly. There are bees stamped as a border around the top note.

Wow, Sue! You are making cards already. That's good right! On the road to recovery from surgery. YAY! I love your beautiful sunflower and the fine nestie you used for it. Amazing how yellow is set off by the black huh!
P.S. Take care and expect a little something from me soon. I so enjoyed making a special card just for you! Hugsxo
