More butterflies for Creative Inspirations

Well i ended up creating two cards and could not decide which one to enter so i thought i would enter this one also. I kept with the butterflies on this one as well and again tried to keep it fairly simple.

I used a pearlescent white card black. I cut a smaller square from blue card stock and i dry embossed 0.5cm all the way around to give the card a bit more interest, i adhered this to the card using foam tape. I cut four 3cm x 3cm squares from light green card stock and light yellow paper. I then dies cut three butterflies, one each of light yellow, light green and blue. I then stamped a sentiment on one of the yellow squares. I arranged the squares and then adhered them to the card using double sided tape. I adhered a butterfly to each of the remaining squares and alternated the colours. I used Glossy Accents for this. Once the Glossy Accents was dry i then folded the wings out a little to make them more dimensional. I then adhered a light green heart just below the sentiment.

I used...

White pearlescent card stock from Kmart

Blue and Green card stock from my stash

CAS LIM Butterfly Card

Well i found the Creative Inspirations blog a little challenging as the colours are not something i would normally use or combine but i think that was the really great thing about this challenge. I love taking part in these challenges as they get you to think outside of your comfort zone and that is something i need to do. With this card i wanted to keep it relatively simple and i hope you like what i came up with?

I used a pearlescent white card stock blank, i cut out a scalloped square from light yellow dotted paper (sorry it is really hard to see from the photo) i cut out several butterflies using spellbinders dies and a Martha Stewart butterfly punch. I adhered them to the card using Glossy Accents, i love it because it doesn't dry instantly so gives you a little flexibility when it comes to positioning the item and also dries clear. I will add the sentiment later as i figure this card could be used for several different occasions.
