Hello Spring Card #2

Hello, everyone!  I hope everyone is having a great day.  Today, I would like share a card I created for a friend of mine, Dixie.  I love the colors in this card, especially the aqua.  I used the  Cas(E) Sketch Challenge #18  (http://casethissketch.blogspot.com/2013/03/case-this-sketch-challenge-18.html) sketch to create my card.  Please take some time to stop by and visit their site to see the work the designers are sharing this week.  I wanted to make a bright and cheerful card, and I think I have accomplished that.
I used dies by My Creative Time to cut the eggs and the flower I created.  I also dry embossed one of the eggs to add some texture to the card.  The sentiment in the flower is a My Creative Time and I placed another sentiment (Simple Sayings 2) on the inside of the card by Jaded Blossom (you can see this below).  I think the interior sentiment will bring a smile to my dear friend.  I cut a butterfly from my Cricut, not sure what cartridge, and I scored and slightly folded the wings up.  
This is the sketch was provided for this challenge.
I hope you enjoyed the card and thanks for stopping by to take a look at this card.  I am also submitting this card into the CTV Stamps It's So You challenge #26 and the Cuttlebug Mania Butterfly Challenge.  If you have enjoyed visiting my site please become a follower.  Thanks again.
