The first card is for Day #153 - Tag You're It! I also combined it with Midnight Madness, MMSC12 sketch and Splitcoast Challenge LSC231 to use Limited Supplies, this week was A Challenge to DIE For - translated: use a die cut/punch as the focal point of the card, the only stamped image could be used as background or sentiment but not both. Midnight Madness and Day 153 at 365 cards was easy to combine. I opted not to use a stamp at LSC231 but used the cuttlebug folder "Thanks" for my message.
To make this card I used cuttlebug butterfly, swiss dots and thanks folders, corner punch, scor-pal for grid, circle punches, SU! CS, yellow dotted paper from Making memories scrapbook project pad. No ink was used in the making of this card!!!
The next card is for Day #152 at 365 Cards - Peek A Boo to You!
The challenge is to make a card that has a flap or hidden area on it. This card turned out the way I designed it in my head, but the mechanics of it didn't. The flap doesn't lift the way I thought it should but I'll just have to work those kinks out the next time I make one! LOL!
I versa marked and embossed in white Long Stem flower from SU!. All cardstock is SU and used a fiskars punch for the lace edging.
Well, that is it for today. I need to finish painting the utility room today, well, at least get part of it done. My DH keeps wanting to know if we are ever going to finish any of the projects started this summer. Well, DH, in an older home, I don't think we'll ever be finished!
Have a great day and week-end. Stay safe and Happy!

Both cards are lovely. I love how you've embossed white over the polka dots on the flap - looks fab!
First, I must say, I LOVE your blog! Second - the butterfly card is wonderful. I like how you used the butterfly on the tag. And last - I LOVE the card for Day 152 - WOW - that is so pretty. TFS
Your cards are lovely. I really like how you used the cuttlebug butterfly. I love seeing how creative people can be by not using a stamped or printed image to create their cards with. Great job. Thank you so much for playing with us at the MMSC this week. Hope you will play again. You won't want to miss all the fun and exciting things coming up.

Great cards. I like how you used the butterfly in place of the usual flower. Great take on the sketch. If you like participating in challenges, you might be interested in my Saturday challenges. The prize is a set of nestabilities.
I love the color combos on both your cards. Since I love butterflies, I especially love the first. Beautiful job!! Thanks for playing with the MMSC this week!

Hi Sam! I love butterflies so I am drooling all over this card. We watch/raise monarch butterflies during the summer and we just released a female this morning that came out of her chrysalis! :) Great way to start a day! Thank you for playing with us and I hope to see you again in the next challenge!
