Butterfly Birthday Cards with CAS Colours and Sketch Challenge #581 and Just Add Ink Things with Wings

The sketch at CAS Colours and Sketch #581 appealed to me along with Just Add Ink's focus of Things with Wings so I made 2 cards featuring Brushed paper (old Close to my Heart) and new butterflies from Simon Says Stamp (Whirl Butterflies in solid yellow pearlescent card stock) and Stampin' Up (Beautiful Butterflies cut from patterned paper and holographic layer).  I can't decide which I like better!




 
Which card do you like better?

Here is the fabulous sketch that inspired my card layouts:





I’m also entering this card into the following challenges:

      Neglected Stuff March Challenge--use at least one item a year old or older (Brushed Paper--maybe 8 or more years old?)

      Allsorts Challenge #845--Things with Wings

      Seize the Birthday #322--Green or Anything Goes

      Hearts Quest Celebrations of Love--Birthdays, Engagements, Weddings, Anniversaries, Sympathies


Thanks for stopping by!  Have a wonderful week filled with fun and creativity!

:) Marie

Very cute pair of cards! I love the shimmery look of both butterflies; don't make me choose lol! Thanks for sharing at CAS Colours & Sketches!

I don't think I could decide between them either. I love the design of both Marie. That is such a neat way to inset the butterflies into your paper panel. Thanks for joining in with us at Just Add Ink.

I agree - I can't decide which I like better either - I like them both! Lovely to see similar designs done differently. Chantell Just Add Ink

both of your card creations are quite lovely and CAS too. I would not want to choose. Changing up the butterflies was a nice touch. We at Seize the Birthday Challenge are glad to see you here.
