I have a little confession to make. The FMS design team likes to joke a bit because one of us doesn't like to see circles on sketches. And a few weeks ago we learned that another of us doesn't like things that are centered. Well in the spirit of true confessions I will say that three of something on a sketch kind of freaks me out! I fretted for several days over this sketch because I'm never quite sure what to do with those three things. Are they supposed to be three of the same thing? Or three different things? Don't ask me!
I started out with an entirely different card than what you see here but with the help of the colors from Stamp Ink Paper and a little flip of the sketch, this card was born! Whew!
The ladies from Freshly Made Sketches obviously had no trouble with this sketch as you will see when you visit there. I hope to see you in the gallery later!
Thanks for stopping by!

These butterflies are just gorgeous! Love the pink with the gold! And I hear you with those three squares.....I had to make them askew!
The first thing I noticed about this beautiful card, were those dies...two of my most favorites ever! Then I was drawn into those stunning butterflies. Oh. My. Goodness! They are beyond gorgeous. The hint of gold is such a great idea and a great take on that color challenge too. Fantastic card, my friend, fantastic!! Bev
Well I think you did the "three things" very well!! This is soft and delicate, love it Jen!!
What a beautiful card! Love the sketch & you've used it so creatively, Jen!
Perfect take on the sketch Jen....this is one beautiful card!
What a funny story about your team and their design issues! Your butterflies are beautiful, and they fit the design perfectly!
So clever to have the three butterflies, Jen!!!! And they look stunning in the soft pink and gold!!!! Love the scalloped border and all the white space!!! This is soooooo beautiful!!! Love it!!
Have a great day!!!
Great job with the butterflies - it certainly was a great way to feature the three elements on the sketch. Your interpretation of the sketch is genius!
This is the perfect '3' Jen - those butterflies are just beautiful!

What sweet butterflies Jen, and the gold touches are perfect on this CAS card. Thanks for joining our colour challenge this week at Stamp Ink Paper. Carolyn xx
Love the pretty butterflies, beautiful card!!
Haha! Jen, I suffer the same anxiety when faced with three "things". I especially fret when it is three squares like this. Your card is beautiful!
Such a beautiful card Jen! I love your pink and brown butterflies and such a great CAS design! Thanks so much for joining us at Stamp, Ink, Paper for our color challenge this week!
Another wonderfully beautiful card, Jen! I love the flirty butterflies and the gorgeous color palette. I know you're going to think I'm a little weird (if you don't already!), but this card actually gives me goosebumps (in a good way)!
Gorgeous, Jen! I love the little touches of gold, and those tiny scallops are perfect with the butterflies. I'm with you on sketches that have multiple focal images.
Jen, this is stunning! You picked gorgeous stamps for your three! A WOW! card for sure!
Well, well, well....we found the Achilles heel??? Apparently, no! Since this is awesome. Love the butterflies! and your flip on the sketch!
