Natures Blessings

Happy TGIF to all my bloggie friends.  Even though it was wet and foggy most of the day I still feel Spring getting closer. I am not a winter person anymore and feel excited with the warm weather drawing near.  We all know that as a child we pretty much adapt to all kinds of weather but as we grow older we feel it just a little more. 
Now on to my card.  I used Indie Art(butterfly), Forever Young(flower) and MS Seasonal carts.(scalloped & plain circles).  In my stash I found the charm cross, ribbon, and gems.  I used my fairly new stamp set from Mary @ Cardz TV(Encouraging Thoughts) and the pink flourish die-cut from Sizzix.  I decided to do 3 layers for the butterfly, leaving the top layer wings detached. I cut it real size at 21/2 inches.  The card is 5X5 inches and is a sketch.  Have a spectacular weekend!
