Lucy's challenge

Lucy has challenged us to make a card inspired by someone else's creation. Mine is this gorgeous layout by Irma. I think it is SO creative and I loved her vertical elements, her colors, and her use of butterflies. I tried to use those elements for my card.
For details, see my Flickr photostream.
