I kept the colors soft, like those in the pictures. And I had fun finding a tree to use...there must be dozens of trees on Cricut cartridges! I finally decided on one from Serenade...and I think the polka dot paper gives it a springy feel too. I used two different Cuttlebug folders on the tulips, added a bit of bling around the scalloped circle and some lime green stickles on the butterfly. What do you think?

I'm entering this scrapbook page into four challenges:

CropStop Challenge Blog: Challenge #10 - Spring is in the Air! - To celebrate the arrival of spring, show your spring art...lots of butterflies and flowers.
Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Me Monday #50: Tree Time - Create a project using any type of tree.
Scrappy Moms Terrific Tuesday Challenge - B is for Boy/Sugar & Spice - Create any project using the Cricut Lite cartridges B is for Boy or Sugar & Spice, or a similar cut if you don't own either of these. I don't own any Lite cartridges, so I used Simply Charmed for the tulips which look similar to the tulips on Sugar & Spice.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
