As I continue to make cards for friends and family at this time, I am finding it hard to think of what I want to do, so I have made myself go to my basket of stashed goodies to see if I get any inspiration there, and this card just seemed to flow together. I had stamped these roses and leaves awhile back and just wasn't sure I was happy with them so into my stash folder they went. The background is one that I had done in my stamp group awhile ago and never used. The vellum piece was in there too, too small to put back with the vellum so I grabbed that and decided to die cut that piece, then I started arranging the flowers and leaves, looked back and thought this might just work, added them to the background and all was good. I almost wish now I would have left off the butterfly stickers seeing it on this photo but before I sent it I thought it looked good.

i think the butterflies look good. maybe too purple in the first picture, but the second picture shows their true color (i think) and in the second picture, i think they look great!!! plus, they look great with the dots!!
i like the sentiment, and how the color of that matches the leaves...this one is a winner!!!
BEAUTIFUL! Love that background and your Vellum die cut underlay, so pretty!
This is just beautiful! Isn't it fun to dip back into your stashed goodies and come up with something as gorgeous as this! Great job! Love It!
Love the background, those pretty roses, and even the butterfly stickers! The scallop border is pretty too!
your stashed goodies box is a great idea, Connie! And this card is lovely in the soft colors and pretty pink elements! hugs, de
This is so Springy. Isn't fun to go through your stash and build a card? I love the soft look of this.
Its nice to have stash! Such a lovely card. Your background is pretty cool.
I rather like the butterflies, Connie! Love what you did with the vellum! Beautiful card!
Wow, this is pretty, Connie, and I sure don't see anything wrong with the butterflies! I have so many things I haven't used yet, I could just grab and go, but it's still hard to decide sometimes. I love what you ended up with!
This is lovely, Connie - so sweetly vintage xx Thinking of you and hope you and loved ones have a peaceful and blessed Easter. xo
Wonderful background color, love the vellum and fun flowers Connie.
Hugs Diane
