Are you ready for a butterfly creation today?  Well I have one all ready for this weeks Create with Connie & Mary Thursday challenge!  This week is a color challenge – Island Indigo, Daffodil Delight and Lucky Limeade.  Actually I could probably use those same colors and make something for this weeks Neon challenge on My Digital Studio.net – but I probably won’t have time to get it done before the deadline so forget that.  Ok – here is this fun card —

It’s really bright and has more of a summer feel to it.  I know that makes it out of season – but that’s ok.  The idea/inspiration from this card came from a new blog that I started following – it is a demonstrator in Germany – her name is Jenni – and her blog is written in German.  So I have to dig deep into my memory bank and try to remember some German so I can figure out what she is saying.  Maybe I’ll get a few words here and there….. anyway she has some really pretty creations and one was similar to this card with the butterflies.  So I used that idea along with this weeks colors for the challenge –
