Spring Has Sprung!

Spring has sprung!  Well at least it has on this card...I originally wanted to make a tiny envelope on this using a template till I ran across this mini envelope that was bigger but it ended up working best with this butterfly punch I used...I used my ribbon to chose the colors I would use for my butterflies...I then arranged them as if they were flying out of the envelope and tiny pearls were added to the centers...You could use just the tiny butterflies on a smaller envelope and maybe print out a message to slide inside partially sticking out like "Happy Birthday" just for fun...Thanks so much for stopping by today!  Special thanks to Lori Hamilton for being the Guest Designer last week!

Supplies: Paper by SU, Envelope Michaels, Ribbon Michaels, Butterfly Punch by Martha Stewart, Pearls by Recollections...
