Confessions of a Paperholic

I did complete my Scraps Challenge for the month of March, actually I completed two cards. The first card, the one with the rose, was a different card I had envisioned all together. However, my vision was for naught and I scrapped the original in the end. The flower scrap card is the remains of an idea.

The butterfly thank you card is also a scrap and one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy. Thank you for stopping by.
