Yellow Tulips card

It's week 66 and a colour challenge this time over at
'Less is More'  which is.............
                                     Yellow
I made a card using one of the lovely digi images from
'Beccy's Place' again. This time I coloured the tulips in
yellow. I 3d'd some of the petals and punched a butterfly
& glittered those also.  A bit of yellow chalking around
the main image & a printed sentiment  (from a Bold
 Botanicals set).I hope the yellow colour brightens your day:)

It's been a very busy week again, not a brilliant one either.
We learned that my  brother also has bowel cancer,
( my other brother died last month from it too).Not sure
they can operate as he has heart & breathing problems.
 As we have just put our house on the market this week,
 it's been a very stressful time. I have just received a massive
 bouquet of flowers from a good friend today.....how lovely
of her to think of me.
