In my Garden

 Hello friends! I've been working in my craft room with a garden theme of butterflies and blooms today. Playing with a sketch and a nice collection of new supplies that I have lined up from recent orders. And oh boy, did I have fun! More awaits.


Michele's sketch from Freshly Made was my starting point.  My interpretation is not literal although I took quite a while trying to get a  balance of the die cuts and embellishments. 


It's a great sketch! For the leaves and flower, just a bit of inking added interest. I think the butterflies fit well with this sentiment. Pearls were the only embellishment. 

Hope your Saturday is going well! I appreciate your visit so much.

Cindy, I'm so happy to have my sketch be the 'starting' point to your lovely card! LOve your gorgeous Sunflower and 'greenery' - and of course your little flutterby is the perfect topping!
Thanks so much for playing cards with us this week, my friend!

Oh, Cindy, I love to see your new schtuff! My, what gorgeous dies you have! How beautiful the leaves and sunflower bloom look together, and the dainty branch and butterflies are the perfect additions. I can totally see Michele's sketch in your card and it's lovely!
