Hey, all! Happy hump day! Hope your week is going well so far.I've been mulling over this week's Card Patterns sketch for quite a while. When I sat down to create, I fiddled with my card for a LONG time. I was struggling with all the pieces, trying to coordinate it all without it looking too busy. I guess my simple mind can't handle it, huh?

This is super cute Ann! I love what you did with that sketch. It was too intimidating for me... not going to try it! :)
Wonderful card, Ann! I love the tiny butteflies!
Ann this is adorable! Love the colors you used. And I agree- when I see those extra layers I always try to simplify them, too. Less is more, for me.
All that fiddling payed off, 'cause this is gorgeous! Fabulous colors and I love that little row of butterflies!

You did a great job with this sketch Ann, your card is so lovely!
I looked at your card and then had to go back to the top of the blog to read the banner to make sure I was on the right blog. So many layers for you! But you did manage to still keep a very clean look to it with all the white space. I like your colors.
It's doesn't look busy at all. It looks GREAT!
Great color palette! Love the little butterflies...
