On Butterfly Wings

Roxie has come through with another fabulous sketch for us to play with. On this first card of the morning, I used Magenta stamps. The sentiment is from a Verve set. When I started to color the image, I intended to color the leaves, but then loved the drama of the white leaves on the blue background. I flipped the original sketch to make the image 'fit right'.

Have a fabulous day!!!
