I'm kind of in love.  The butterflies were SO. MUCH. FUN. to make!  Want to see how I did it?!  First, I just watercolored on a piece of Watercolor Paper in Flirty Flamingo, Pineapple Punch, Coastal Cabana, Granny Apple Green:

Then I just stamped my butterflies:

Punch out and VOILA:

Fun rainbow butterflies!!!  😍😍😍  Here is the card again:

I LOVE the greeting on this!  It is from the More Than Words stamp set. There is that big "Wishes" stamp, and then there is another stamp that adds the detail to the bottom of the big "WISHES" word.  So I just stamped that with VersaMark and embossed with gold embossing powder.  Love!!!!

I seriously love these butterflies SOOOOOO much!!!!

This little chocolate treat that coordinates has my heart as well.

I love the gold detail on this punched piece.  I punched it out, and then just swiped the Story Label Punch piece with VersaMark ink.  Then added some Gold Embossing Powder.  SOOO cute!

Add some ribbons and some butterflies and you have a fun little topper to your treat!  PS...yes...I curled this ribbon.  It is the Flirty Flamingo Ribbon from the All My Love Ribbon Pack.  I just wrapped it around a pen, and then heat set it a little to set the curl.  Kinda love this little detail.

What do you think of these fun little flowers?!

Aren't they just precious?!

This card was simple to put together, yet packs a big punch...a Pineapple Punch!  (That's the name of the yellow color I used.  Haha.)

We made this card at the last Suite Stampin' Success event that I did.  It was a fun make & take, if you are asking my opinion.  😀

Fabulous butterflies!  Here is a photo of the process:

Look at all those fun butterflies.  I have to also mention this Shimmery White Embossing Paste background.  😍😍😍 I LOVE it!  I used the Pattern Party Decorative Masks & the paste to add those fun shimmery bricks.
