This is my first post of 2019, so a belated happy new's years. Obviously, I haven't been doing a lot of cardmaking.
I did find some time to play recently, and I had fun using this cute image from Polkadoodles. The image is colored in pencils, with a little out of the box cut on the circle. The image is mounted on a scallop circle cut from a snippet of printed paper. The base layer is a snippet of a polka-dot pattern with the tiniest dots ever. I used a snippet strip of striped vellum and some ribbon to create a layer and break up all the green.
The flowers almost seem old fashioned now; I guess everyone is using die-cuts instead of silk and Pima flowers.
This card is for these challenges:
Butterfly Challenge #115 -- yellow and your choice (vellum, ribbon, flowers)

Word Art Wednesday #370 -- anything goes
