Hello and Happy Thursday Everyone! We are on the last day of the Month! Geez, what happen to March? Seems like yesterday was January 1st! Before we know it Summer will be here! YIKES!
I was watching a few videos over the Easter Weekend and decided to play with some of my new crafty things -  I tried to make it a CAS Card because I have a  hard time doing those - I prefer layers :)
So here's what I created to share with you today -

I really like how this turned out except for the lavender Butterfly

In hindsight I would have left it white too! :) 

But that's how we learn - 

I certainly wasn't going to throw it away just because of that! :)

Because I liked the way this turned out so much that I made

another card using some other colors -

Now, I think this one turned out so lovely - I just love it! :) It pays to Practice, Practice, Practice!!! (Wink Wink)
