Today’s card features one of my favorite Hero Arts stamp sets called Antique Engravings – that’s where the butterflies come from. It also features one of my favorite collections of patterned papers from Basic Gray – the Lemonade collection. The colors are so bright, fresh and beautiful. This whole card actually feels to me like a little bit of spring! All the snow had melted last week, making me hopeful that spring was around the corner, and then Saturday, we had a huge rainstorm which transitioned to freezing rain and then finally transitioned to a snow storm. 🙁

What a beautiful card, and a lovely sentiment. Sometimes it’s so hard to find just the right message. Thanks so much for sharing this!
Beautiful–I love the butterflies and the layout.
First, congrats on the Hero Arts tweet! And now, I love your card, what a beautiful colour combination with awesome papers and layout! Plus, you are using my favourite stamp set of all times! And last but not least, that sentiment, so beautiful! I love everything about this card!
Awesome colors and I love the soft bling in the form of the pink half pearls.
I have been really getting into using this type of embellishment in a subtle way recently. Thanks for sharing. I love the paper too. As a quilter for 12 years this paper would be the type of fabric that I would want to buy.
Stunning butterflies on a beautiful card!
Beautiful! Love the 3-D aspects with the butterflies and the pink pearls. 🙂
