My flower and leaves are made from the Cuttlebug Quilling Chrysanthemum Kit. Again I only used two of the three plates to create the flower.  I inked the edges of the leaves to give some dimension along with giving them a twist.  I added stickles to the "I" in SPRING.  But more is not better!  As you can see the "I" isn't really visable. While it was wet I actually move the glitter away from the "I" but it must have migrated back! I also added the tiny butterfly with some added stickles from the SU Butterfly Emboss Plate.   It was the perfect size. 

Oh I almost forgot, I was looking through my stash of treasures that Arlana gave to me...and I couldn't believe that I had two ladybugs in the two colors that matched this card! 
Have you ever seen a pink or teal ladybug?????
Thanks for stopping by!  I love your sweet comments!  Have a great week and try to stay warm!

  8. Hi Judi your card is totally gorgeous I just love those colours together they are just so perfect. What an amazing find for those lady bugs and no I haven't seen them that colour we do get a deep blue green peacock colour lady bug but the red are more common. I bought the Cuttlebug flower but I'm thinking of taking it back, I just don't think I will use it very much and would be better off buying a set of Nestabilities. I just adore your card it's so so striking.
    Hugs
