I'm super excited to be joining with my teammates for Cupcake Inspirations Challenge #354
for three reasons: the pretty colours, the fabulous inspiration photo and, most important, because this week we're sponsored by My Creative Time! If it weren't for my discovery of Emma, her amazing products and her fantastic videos, I wouldn't be making cards today. She was my 'gateway' into this sport, my first *Muse*, and my first connection with this dynamic community. I have plenty of MCT in my collection and I love it alllll! Her blog is a vibrant, innovative source of inspiration. Please: if you have a chance, head over to her place. She is a GEM!
My card features three sets of some of favourite MCT products:
Pretty Butterflies & Dragonflies Dies
Script Type Backgrounds Stamp
You Matter Stamps
I used two of the 'watercolour' background stamps for my background (my secret is revealed *grin*), two of the butterfly dies - one to create the stitched outline and a second for the little insets, and a sentiment from You Matter. The Spring palette makes me smile, and I hope it evokes a similar response for you!
Inspired to play along? I hope so, because guess what: Emma is generously giving THREE stamp sets to this week's winner! I'd love if these would head your way!!
Bring out your blush, meringue and sky inks, papers, markers....whatever you have...and join us!
See you in the gallery!!

Such a cute one. Your creativity in assembling this card is awesome-- the background and the die-cut holes and butterflies is creative genius.
This is so pretty. The small butterflies are a wonderful addition to the larger butterfly die cut space.

Yep 'smiled all over my face' when I saw this pretty! Love the butterfly within a butterfly technique and LOVE that you paired a bold black sentiment with soft pastel colors.

Doesn't matter how you do it, it's the results that count and your background is fabulous, Carol. And there are your trademark butterflies adding to the loveliness.

SO prefect!
Carol I love how you see the pastels behind the butterflies. So pretty!
Wow this is so sot and pretty. Love it
Ohh Carol, Carol... This is just so lovely! I love your background, and how you nested the little butterflies in the bigger butterfly negatives! So clever! ;-)
Back to doing butterflies! you do them so well! Like the PP peeking though the bigger butterflies!
Love what you did here, Carol--top of my Carol favorites! The little butterflies over the larger negative die cuts is just brilliant & I love the stripes!
