Sketch attempt take 2

After yesterday's confusion with the Papercrafting Journey sketch challenge - 'go girly', I have made another card with a girly theme.  It's the same style (spring card) as my last post (see here) and I have used some leftover scraps of paper from one of the Papermania Capsule collection paper packs to mount the white panel.  I used the same paper for the top layer of the butterfly which is cut from a stencil created after using a die at a class earlier this week (see Thursdays post for the die cut butterfly).

The flowers are cut with a punch and the leaves from the two step bird punch, I use these flowers on lots of my cards as they are so simple and ideal for using up all those leftover pieces of card.  You can just see the diamantes in the centre of the butterfly and flowers, which co-ordinate with the purple colour theme. 
And of course, here are the other challenges I have entered:

Timeless Tuesday - I have been inspired by the colour of the seat cushions - 'purple'
Divas by Design - 'pastels'
Flutter By Wednesday - 'butterfly'
Craftroom - 'butterflies'
