This is the card I made for Brenda, the recipient of this week's Teapot Tuesday challenge cards!
This is my story!
1. Yikes! I gotta sit by someone who earned extra cookies at the teaparty cuz I ain't gettin' none myself! Oops....I sorta had butterflies on the brain probably because I don't do flowers well!
2. Look at me! I stamped, stamped and stamped some more on my card! I didn't papercraft! Whoot!
I forgot how fun it is to stamp...although sadly, I remembered how hard it is to color what you stamp! Ugh!
3. Anyway, sorry I am so late! Time gets away....
If you would like to make a card for Brenda, check out Frans' fun challenge here...

This is gorgeous. I love how you did the clouds and overlayed the greenery. No worries-all your cards are beautiful and masterpieces, whether they are pieced or stamped. :o}

I want to come play in this beautiful butterfly garden!! Maybe just sit for awhile and have the butterflies alight on me, I'll be quiet!
Cindy, this butterfly garden is beautiful! Perfect for siting quietly amidst the sweet beauty and taking it all in! Brenda will love this and probably wish to be a part of it too!

Everything looks absolutely beautiful!! The sky with the branches framing it. The butterflies are just gorgeous against the sky and the way you used the background paper behind the scene makes everything pop!
