Spring Love

We are finally getting warmer weather and the snow is slowly melting away. Though it's still hovering right above freezing, we can finally enjoy being outside again. I was inspired to make this spring card.

The butterflies are Hero Arts digital stamps. The chevron background and sentiment (which was die cut using Spellbinders Home Sweet Home dies) are by Waltzingmouse stamps,the gray PP is Echo park.The bling is Want2Scrap. The links are below.
With Love
The butterflies were colored with Copics. I think this is the first time I've ever tried to blend two different color families.
With Love details
 
I also used WMS Sketch for my card:
and the color scheme is from CR84FN challenge.
Have a great weekend, friends!
