Supplies: A-muse: Beautiful botanicals and papers, Sizziz Tim Holtz
Alterations embossing folder, Martha Stewart butterfly punch, pattern
paper by TAC, ribbon by Bazzill.
 
I've seen a card similar to this on Pintrest thought it was darling so  this
is my version.  I used various green watercolor markers on the leaves,
spritzed and stamped, punched my butterflies and them embossed my
focal paper.  The butterflies become part of the paper, for a look they
I really like.

The ribbon match the background DP perfectly, and I love your choice of bold colors against to decorative embossed white paper.

Very pretty card Donna. I love the quilted look when you emboss your background with the papers already on it. I really like the color combo and the way your watercoloring turned out.
