Ok, now on to my card!!

I have used 'Tilda with Hawaii Flower' #261 from 'Butterfly Dreams Collection 2011.

I have done Category #1 - Full sized Magnolia Image on my Spring card.

Here is the front of my CAS (Clean and Simple) card:

A little closer look at Tilda in her Nestie Circle:

Here is a close up of the inner left side - with a gorgeous butterfly charm I won from Jacque Beddingfield a while ago :o)

And here is the inner right side - I used little silver beads all around the cut out Nestie to match the tiny silver beads inside the butterfly charm
