Beautiful Butterflies - Happy Birthday

Hello stampers,

Today I used the day 9 sketch from Martin's Mayhem - Papercrafter #sketchmayhem365 instagram challenge. If you ever need a bit of help for a card idea try a sketch or a color combo challenge that you find on the web.

For today's card, I started with a new bundle called Beautiful Butterflies. I used Berry Burst Cardstock & Beautiful Bokeh DSP (another new item) to die-cut the butterfly using the Beautiful Butterflies Dies. For the flowers, I ended up using the retired Two-Tone Floral Stamp Set with Daffodil Delight, Fresh Freesia & Calypso Coral Cardstocks/Inks, then die-cut them using the retired Two-Toned Floral Dies. For my base, I assembled the Beautiful Bokeh DSP, Berry Burst & Basic White Cardstocks, before adding the butterfly & the flowers. I used a strip of Basic White Cardstock for the sentiment, stamping a sentiment from the set using Berry Burst Ink which was popped up using Stampin' Mini Dimensionals. To finish the card, I added a few Berry Burst sequins from Sequins Trio.
