Where is Spring?

 After this weekend, I needed a little spring! We had 45 mph winds and a temp of only 45! That wouldn't be so bad if you could remain in your house. Not my family! We had 2 soccer games on Saturday and 2 more on Sunday! UGH! Now I was a good mommy and sat out on Saturday for Belle (5yr) and Lydia's (8) games. Sunday, I watched Miriam's (11) 1st game outside but I couldn't bring myself to sit out again the second game! I did park my van in a way that I could watch the entire game so I didn't miss her goal but that wind was more than a person could handle!

Well, that is why I am picking this card to share with you today. It reminds of spring that just hasn't seemed to find SE WI yet! Yes, the tulips and daffodils are blooming but our tempatures just don't want to get above 50's for very long! Anyway, this card is for Color Challenge #89 and Sketch Challenge #87 over at Stampin' Addicts. The butterfly is rock & rolled in Poppy and Concord.

Love the coordination of the background with the butterfly to bring all the elements together.
