I made an A5 size card blank using card from Papermill. I then used my spellbinders die and paper from Papermania Capsule Collection to die cut the paper behind the image. I used 2 backing papers the pink flowery one was a freebie from a magazine (I forget which one or the designer) and the checked paper I am sorry but forgot the designer of that to. I then wanted to add lots of butterfly's to make it more spring like so I die cut the butterfly's using my cherry lynn butterfly's die, I used lilac and pink card from papermill and then the same paper i used behind the image (papermania). I then added diamond stickles to the center of the butterfly's to make them sparkle. I coloured the image using promarkers, here is the list of the colours I used:
