Just Us Girls #826 - Die Week

Carol is the host for Die Week at Just Us Girls and she would like to see a butterfly die used on our cards.


I'd like to welcome Kellianne from In My Stamp Room as our guest designer this month.  She has some softly colored and beautifully designed  cards on her blog that you'll want to take a peek at.  

As for me, my card is fairly clean and simple.


I've had this Memory Box butterfly for quite a while.  One cuts the detail that's done in Graphic foil from C9 and the other the background that is colored with Mica Sprays in Snowflurries and Winterfrost. The same colors are on the border cut with HA Rounded Rectangles. C9's Swirls Die adds a little flight movement to the main panel.  The sentiment is from The Ton. 

Now it's your turn.  For inspiration, please check out what the Design Team and our guest Kellianne have made.  They're sure to give you ideas.

So pretty, Bobby! LOve the movement and color - on another note, we actually saw a Monarch on Sunday! That's at least a month earlier than is normal for our area!

I love what you have done with that beautiful butterfly! The clean design with the embossed background and addition of the little dots makes a very soothing sympathy card.

Your CAS card is a winner, Bobby! Pretty butterflies work for every occasion, but a Sympathy card is always made easier with something beautiful like yours.

CAS and oh so pretty Bobby! I love how you did the butterfly and your swirly background is perfect for him too! I hope you don't have to send it out anytime soon, but it will be a beautiful card to send when needed! Hugs. :0)

What a pretty butterfly Bobby, and the swirling background is the perfect touch!

Bonnie said...

This butterfly is so pretty, Bobby! And I really like the 'flight patterns' in the background!

Bobby, I'm echoing the others: your choice of a butterfly, especially in the colours you've chosen, fits beautifully for a sympathy card. Lovely....
