Bloggers Challenge Sketch

This week Lisa has given us a sketch challenge. This is really a great sketch. I can see using it again and again. As you can tell from my colors, I am desparately wishing for spring to really arrive. A butterfly, flowers, and Easter colors were used to create this CAS card. The butterfly is actually dimensional, but flattened by the scanner.
Could someone with more springlike weather send some my way? Pleeeeease.

Spring is def. on the way--and your card is a great example of working it in. Love the butterfly-is it a die cut or a stamp? You followed the sketch perfectly. Great job!
