Download Beauty Abounds Thanks

This is a cute layout and changing the sentiment could make it a card for any occasion. Stampin' Up! outdid themselves in the butterfly category this year. It is hard to choose which are my favorites. 

Do you have a favorite butterfly set? I'd love to hear about it.

Enjoy
