One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

PTI Anniversary Butterflies and Leaves Challenge

Today is day 9 of the anniversary festivities for Papertrey.  Today Nichole showcased two stamp sets,  Beautiful Butterflies and Lovely Leaves...her cards are of course awesome.  The challenge is to make a card using leaves and butterflies...so here goes:
I used the two smallest  butterflies from Butterfly Dreams and the tree and leaves from Merry Little Christmas.  The sentiment is from Flutterby Friend.  Have you ever been to Pacific Grove, California where close to 25, 000 butterflies return every year?  I have been there, but not at the right time; you need to go in October when they migrate to that warmer climate.  I can just imagine that it is a spectacular site with butterflies every where..
