Inspiration Station Challenge #70

Hello Crafty People, I hope you're doing well.  We've been sick around here and I've not had the energy nor the mojo to be creative, only within the past few days I've had the energy to create a few cards.  

Today is the 1st Monday of the month and it's time for a new challenge at The Inspiration Station Challenge Blog.  I know lots are wishing for Spring and our inspiration photo reminds me of warm, sunny days in the garden.


I was inspired by both images in the photo and I've used the Butterfly & Flower Digital Stamp from Creative Worship by Sweet n' Sassy Stamps for my card.  The image has been colored using Copic Alcohol Markers, and white dots have been added to the butterfly using a Gelly Roll Pen.


The sentiment was a freebie from the blog of my dear friend Donna Ellis of Creative Smiles. I decided to keep the card design CAS as the image is so pretty and the sentiment so sweet, I thought this card didn't need anything else, except for a few golden sequins.


We hope you'll visit us at the Inspiration Station Challenge this month and share your inspired cards.  We' always enjoy visiting everyone and are constantly amazed at all the talent.  Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Donna
