Butterfly Birthday

Our niece will be turning 3 years old next week and she is having a butterfly birthday party! Here is the card I have made to celebrate her big day. I am hoping to have another crafty project to go along with it, we'll see if I can get it done in time!

When I first came across this week's Retro Sketch, I must admit I was quite intimidated; however, upon seeing my aunt's fantastic creation with this sketch, I knew I wanted to play along too! It was pretty fun going through new and old paper packs to piece together some scraps! My niece loves pink, so the colours from Paper Sweeties Inspiration went along perfectly. I also played along with the fun tic-tac-toe challenge at The Paper Players and went straight across the top with Birthday + Green + Buttons.
All supplies are Close To My Heart:
Paper - patterned: Brushed, Lollydoodle, Lucy, Dotty For You, Wings, Life Delights;
ink - Slate; stamp set - Say It In Style; Blush buttons; Flutter Paper Shapes.
