Happy Summer! I hope everyone is enjoying the summer like I am so far. The weather here in New England has been beautiful so far. We are just having our first days of 90 something degrees here this week. It definitely puts me in a happy mood.
I decided that I would make this card using this adorable image from LOTV. I have had it colored for a while but didn't feel creative enough to make something with it. There were butterflies out in my garden last week and it made me think of the image so I created this fun card. I am giving it to a little boy from school when I write to him to see how he is enjoying his summer. I made it open from the side because he was always asking me why my cards open the wrong way (Hallmark has him brainwashed).
