Wishing You A Perfect Day

What is your idea of a perfect day?  Mine is relaxing in a beautiful garden spot.  Well, that won't happen for awhile, now will it? 
I made this card as a birthday card (for later in the year).  Don't you love this pop up bench?  It is one of the wonderful die cuts by Elizabeth Crafts, our generous sponsor this month for the Die Cut Diva's Challenge.

Here is the front of the card:
I stamped the hydrangea image, by Our Daily Bread Designs, then sponged on several colors of ink.  The butterfly, also ODBD,  is stamped with blue ink onto blue cardstock with touches of blue Stickles added.
The sentiment "perfect day" is Stampin Up and "wishing you" is GKD.
So this being January 1, we have a long wait for a day for the bench in the park but it was fun to make this card and play with this fabulous die cut by Elizabeth Crafts.
Come play the challenge at Die Cut Divas.  Maybe you could win a gift certificate.

Through the Craft Room Door - anything
Word Art Wednesday - anything

Stamping Boutique - Spring Inspired

    The front of your card has amazing bright colors and I love the butterfly and how you carried the flitting butterfly theme into the inside of the card. I do love that bench. You've created a wonderful scene.

    This is a gorgeous card...Love that bench for sure as well as the scene you created. Thanks for blessing us with your artwork last week at Word Art Wednesday. There is still time to join us for our Challenge this week so, I hope you link more projects with us. Leaving you with God's Word in Hebrews 7:25 which says, "Therefore he (Jesus) is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them." God bless always!
