Flutterby Wednesdays



Happy Wednesday! It's time for another Flutterby Wednesdays challenge. This week our challenge is blue, green and yellow. Don't forget to add your fairy or butterfly.

For my card I used this sweet image from Whimsy and Stars Studio, Springtime Toadstool. This is one of my favorite spring images, so cute and funny!

Thanks for stopping by today. Hope you will check out the DT creations at Flutterby Wednesdays and play along this week.

I'm going to mail my card off to the Sunshine Mail foundation. They are having a Swing into Spring challenge right now. They are a really great organization that sends cards to kids who are having difficult times (some of them are going through illnesses, some are living in shelters). They have a calendar up for April with their card needs, so you can check it out and see if you have anything in your stash or can create something for them.

My sketch comes from Sketchy Colors #156
