Dazzling Butterflies

 Hello Everyone,

Today I have a card to share that I created for Tic Tac Toe Challenge #298. Felicita has a great board for us to work with this round. I went with the top row of Sparkle, Ribbon or Twine and Butterflies for my card. I pulled out a favorite bundle and some fun patterned paper for my card. The sparkle is there, we had very overcast skies today and the sparkle didn't show.

I had a special person crafting with me today. I was unboxing the Christmas Mice Suite with my grandaughter, who is 7, she immediately wanted to create a card. She makes cards often. She asked if I would share her card with all of you when she was finished. She had some help with the die cuts and embossing the background.
