but I liked it so thought I'd combine it with the latest colour sketch:
I only had Marina Mist and Night of Navy so the base of the butterfly is a snippet of an unamed blue from my stash. A combination of my favourite butterfly dies and an old Fiskars border punch called Treading Water. I remember when this punch first came out (way before dies were popular over here) and it was very difficult to get hold of. The sentiments are from Stampin Ups Because I Care set
And because the current Butterfly Challenge is Punches and/or Pink I've done a pink version:
All the pink card is from my snippets folder so I'll be taking this to Pixie's Snippets Playground
Two really lovely elegant cards, and what a great way to use up snippets

I love that you created your own double challenge!! And made it look so effortless too. I really like the 3D effect of the butterfly. Thanks so much for joining us at CAS Colours & Sketches again this week. Liz x
ReplyDeleteSuper use of the colours and clever to combone it with last week's sketch. Great to have you playing along with CC&S.
ReplyDeleteWonderful card - love the way you used the colors. Thanks for playing along with us at CC&S!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful CAS card. Loving that border punch along with the butterfly. Thank you for fluttering by my challenge where your card will be entered twice. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteTwo really pretty cards, perfectly CAS and a great use of snippets too.
ReplyDeleteTwo lovely CAS cards. I've got this border punch too. I'd forgotten how difficult it was to find at the time. xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards Kim! Such a pretty butterfly and I just checked here and also have that edge punch. I think it was probably the first one I ever bought - and until know I had no idea it was called 'Treading Water' either!
