The Digi Stamp, "Fluttering By", from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps, was used for this card.
I never thought I could get used to Digi Stamps, but WOW, how easy they make card creating. Well, I shouldn't say easy, because making this card, even though it looks very simple, took a lot of maneuvering with that one image of the tulips and butterfly. I cropped out the butterfly, then copied it and re sized it 9 times. Then colored each with Copic Markers and cut each one out. I added a little blue glitter to each Butterfly for a little extra glitz. The Stamen of each flower has yellow glitter.
Other Challenges with this card:
One Stop Craft Challenge - Sew Simple.
Digital Tuesday Challenge 48 - Scallops.
The Designer Papers are from The Caboodle Paper Pack from Close to my Heart.
The Hand Stitching was all done with matching Embroidery Floss.

First, I have to say that you are lucky having temps in the 50's here in PA. We are in SW, Pennsylvania, and are only at 40 degrees today. Still happy though that it is not snowing, and some of it is melting. Your card reminds me that Spring is on the way. Those are the mot beautiful butterflies that I have seen, and the colors are so pretty. Thank you very much for playing with us at the MMSC this week!
