Happy day everyone! This is for the Queen for the Day #13, none other than Marleygo. Congratulations, Lesley! You have a lovely gallery and you leave the sweetest comments!
I selected so many cards to CASE, but ultimately went with this pretty card: IC223 by Marleygo at Splitcoaststampers. Lesley mentioned in her narrative that she had been hoarding the sparkly butterfly dp that she used Â… well I was just as guilty and itÂ’s the exact same dp! Thanks for spurring me to actually cut this beautiful paper and use it Lesley! LOL
I didnÂ’t change much, but I did make it a larger format card, used a portion of the MS wide border punch, added a fancy tag and added iridescent embossed MS butterflies. The glittery butterfly and flower dp remind me of June sights and the old days when I actually spent time gardening!
Thanks for the challenge, Anne Ryan! And thanks to all who take a peek!

Isnt that fabulous to realize you both were hoarding the exact same paper! Such a pretty pretty card, Divinve Ms M. Beautiful in brown and pink - a color palette I've never used. What a winner this one is, my friend.

I thought I was the only one who horded!!! I can understand why you wanted to hang onto this DP though. It is lovely. Perfect accent with the pearls!
