Heartfelt Creations Congratulations Card - Butterfly and Peony's

Welcome!   It's Inspiration Wednesday at Heartfelt Creations.     I don't know about you but I just love butterflies and Spring!  I lived in the East Coast for a couple years and my area had a Butterfly Bush.   I don't know if it is possible to grown them in California but I plan to give it a whirl.
