Today was the 300th sketch challenge on SCS. So, in celebration, there are going to be some prizes given out through a random drawing. So, of course, I had to make at least one card. The sketch just called to me for a bunch of flowers. Since I already had a number of these flowers from Fast & Fabulous (SU) colored and cut out, I decided to use them.

For the flowers, I made a grouping of five of the flowers. Then I punched a bunch of leaves with a Martha Stewart punch. I cut off the stems, sponged the edges with always artichoke and added some veins. Then I just tucked the leaves in and around the flowers until I was satisfied.
Some time ago, I was playing around and had die cut a butterfly from some wide shimmery gold ribbon and added some turquoise glitter along the edge. I decided to use it on this card. I die cut another butterfly from yoyo yellow cardstock and then sponged a lot of ruby red on it. Then I tied them together with black crochet cotton, creating a body for the butterfly. I just drew in the antennae. Here is a closeup of the butterfly, so you can see all the shimmery goodness.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Be blessed.
