Happy Saturday. Saturday is always a reason to celebrate! LOL I am taking some time today to blog a bit, already made a retirement card for a friend, and I am going to try to make a few cards for kids later on in the day. More on those later. This month The Blockheads Design Team is focusing on Butterflies. And, on this lovely Saturday, I want to share a monochromatic CAS butterfly card.
