Consider this a super CAS post... I'll make up for the brevity later *grin*
Both cards are heading to Seize the Sketch #14:
The first one is also off to Mrs. A's Butterflies Challenge #1, where we're invited to combine butterflies and flowers (excited to see what she has in store next go-round...love my butterflies!).
The doily is from MCT; the butterfly from Uniko
This mini - all 3" x 3" of it - is going to A Blog Named Hero Challenge #38: Roy G. Biv
The speech bubble and Thank (I didn't ink the S...nothing like elaborating on the obvious...)
are PS; *you* is Simon Says
And here are my inspired by Seize the Sketch twosome side-by-side...
thanks so much for dropping by; your visit and comments make my day!
Glad you made it in time with your bright and cheerful cards, Carol!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteSo glad you fluttered by just in time. Love that you have used the design paper as your flower image and that is one heck of a butterfly and pink too. Swoon! Hugs Mrs A. (butterfly challenge).
ReplyDeleteI love to see people do two cards for one challenge - these cards are both beautiful, but very different from each other. Great show of versatility here!
ReplyDeleteOoooh you do beautiful things with butterflies Carol! These are both just wonderful! I love the lacy doily behind the butterflies, such a feminine pretty card, and the thank you is perfect with the bright colors and cute patterned paper!
ReplyDeleteAwe!! Cute cards!!! I just love your butterflies!! And i love your take on ROYGBIV!!
ReplyDeleteNow that is one cool idea - leaving the 's' off the 'thanks' and combining it with 'you'. Don't you just want to do a huge fist pump when these clever & resourceful events occur? I know that I do!
ReplyDeleteTwo more AMAZING cards in two distinctive styles! Totally showcases your creativity and talent! Awesome mix of colors and DP and stunning designs, both so perfectly balanced!
Great cards! You've got all my favorite things going on here - flowers, butterflies and die-cuts! Thanks for joining us at Seize the Sketch!
ReplyDelete2 wonderful cards, Carol! LOVE the butterfly & doily one!
ReplyDeleteAnother delightful duo, Carol! The first card just took my breath away! It is SO pretty!!! The butterfly - stunning, especially with the little touch of bling. And the paper...gorgeous! Speaking of gorgeous, that Roy G. Biv guy sure stepped out lookin' gooood! Absolutely love the way you substituted the background circle with two circles and a speech bubble. Totally brilliant!
ReplyDeleteGood morning sweetie...
ReplyDeleteWhat truly stunning creations today...
Big hugs love Pops x x x
LOL...you crack me up. Hope you linked up in time! I love your cards...fun take on the sketch...did you see what card the sketch was based on? It was your birthday card!!!
ReplyDeleteLovely work my friend!
Thanks for joining us at Seize the Sketch :)
Ahh, springtime flowers and butterflies, Carol ... how splendid! The thank you ... don't know if the background is DP or stamping ... but either way I love it! Anita :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so funny...huffing and puffing and well worth it if you ask me. Both of your cards are fabulous, you can never go wrong with butterflies and your thank you card is perfect...love that die!
ReplyDeleteSo colorful and cheerful! I just LOVE the die cut "you"--well, any diecut words, really. I just need to add some to my {small} collection of dies. I'm feeling left out!! Anyway, these are perfect for brightening a special someone's day!!!
ReplyDeleteOh C, you make me laugh. :) Yay for the huffing and puffing which made you get your cards done. They are both lovely. Love the extreme prettiness of the birthday card and the bright happiness of the thank you card. Beautiful!
