Just Us Girls Challenge - "Congratulations" (Word Week)

Well hey there, I've been a busy bee at my craft desk today and I absolutely love the card that I came up with.  Firstly, I should add that some of my crafty friends are having a little inspiration challenge of our own and the lovely Marcelle has posted this sketch for us to be inspired by:
Well, let me tell you that I loved the colours on the sketch so much I tried my best to replicate them, although on the screen here there seems to be pink and when I printed it the circle, sentiment, banner and lighter part beneath all printed white, so that's what I used in my card.

Additionally, I'm entering this in the Just Us Girls Challenge (my first ever).  
I added a line of butterflies rather than keeping the banner blank and added a gem trail for my larger butterfly.  I hope you like it!
I need to get back in to my swimming tomorrow so we'll see if I manage to make any more cards this week.  Thanks for stopping by!
Cheers
Karen

    WOW Karen you have done a fabulous job on this sketch. You matched the colours beautifully and I so love that big butterfly. The little butterflies add just that something extra. Thanks so much for joining in our 300th challenge at Just Us Girls. Hugs Ina.
    PS Need to work on my take on the sketch.

      Thanks Cheryl! It sure took me out of my box, I love how all the layers look clustered together like that. I reckon I might have to have another play with that sketch in the future too!
