Spread Your Wings and Fly!

Happy Monday! Happy Monday! Happy monday! happy monday. Who am I kidding? It's Monday; it's cold; it's raining. There is a reason that there is a song titled, "Rainy Days and Mondays." It was especially bittersweet because we had a beautiful day yesterday (high in the upper 60s), and we were outside for much of the day.
However, I'm trying to make the most of it! Today's card is a mixture of challenges with a new set of stamps that I bought on the BST forum on SCS...love that place!
Paper Sundaes #6 - distressed
SSHP #19 - distressed
SPCC #36 - Creamy Caramel, Barely Banana, Mellow Moss
Belli Challenge #85 - butterflies and/or dragonflies
Card Details:
Stamps: Butterfly and sentiment by There She Goes stamps
Paper: Mellow Moss CS & DSP; Barely Banana CS; and Creamy Caramel CS by Stampin' Up
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black; Creamy Caramel by SU for distressing
Accessories: Copic markers (R12, R14, Y11, YG03); SU distressing tool; pearl stickers; SU oval and scalloped oval punch; SU ribbon (barely banana and True Thyme); Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder
