VLV April week 2

After much thought and deliberation I came 

up with how I wanted to interpret the sketch for 

Viva la Verve's April week 2 sketch... I had decided that

I wanted to incorporate butterflies and flowers so

I could also enter this card in the Verve April Diva Hop.

This month's hop features the styles of Charmaine and Marisa

with the theme being "Bright Blooms and Butterflies."

My creation:

Supplies used:

just loved the sketch! So many layers!
