With that being said, I made a card today for PTI"s Create Along With Us challenge using Betsy Veldman's card as my inspiration.
I stamped the sentiment from Graceful Greetings and used lot of different images from Embellished Elegance, Make it Market ~ Garden Gild, Graceful Greetings and WPlus9's Botanical Bunch for the flowers and leaves. Some yellow Gelato's was rubbed over the stamped flowers to soften them.
I strayed a little from Betsy's design to put my own spin on her beautiful card, by adding a strip of Spring Woods Paper Collection and a strip of card stock that I colored black and added some black Wink Of Stella on to make it shimmer. The butterfly from Beautiful Butterflies & Layers is popped up with a little bit of foam tape for dimension.
I'll also be entering this card into the following challenges:

Thanks so much for stopping by. Blessings~ Birgit

Your sentiment seems to just float over your beautiful floral arrangement. The black strip adds so much and ties it all together with the patterned paper edge, Birgit. So glad to see you back creating as it may bring you some comfort.

This is absolutely beautiful! I love your color palette and thought it was especially clever how you paired the striped edge with the curvy florals. Looks amazing and the sentiment makes this card universally handy for so many occasions. This is the perfect card for Spring and for being happy.
