Fabulous card, looks beautiful as it stands and a clever take on the book- one I know well! Thanks for sharing at Crafty Catz.

Thank you, Chris!!! I debated about whether it was too odd of items coming together. Lots of symbolism was being portrayed through the 3 teal circles for the caterpillar stage and then having the butterflies and moth on top. The garden paper was a nod to all the foods that the caterpillar ate in the story.
DeleteI love the layering on this card. The color combo is beautiful. Thank you for playing with us this week at Cupcake Inspirations Challenge!!
