Yet More Butterflies....Happy Little Stampers May Anything Goes with Dies Challenge, Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge~Flutter

Hello,

WOW...May, already!  I imagine that blossoms and flowers are blooming for many of you; here, our 'darling buds of May' are being a bit hesitant, awaiting warmer weather. Hopefully, we'll see green leaves and vibrant petals soon...

Today, my teammates and I welcome you to Happy Little Stampers May Anything Goes with Dies Challenge

 where you have a chance to win:


Pretty marvelous incentive, indeed!

My showcase was inspired by the pretty monochromatic butterflies at Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge~Flutter


I've mentioned  previously (and often!) that I love my Concord & 9th Beautiful Butterflies, so I reached for the stamps and dies not once, but three times. The front panels are grey, the inside of the die cuts, yellow, pink and peach/coral....


(Adding this one to Less Is More Challenge Challenge #327~Yellow & Grey)




It took a bit of finagling on my part to align the die cuts with the background stamping (my engineering skills aren't that strong..), but the end result was well worth the time and puzzling. Butterflies make me wondrously happy!


Please be sure to visit my team-mates at HLS Anything Goes with Dies, then create a card/project (or three...) of your own and join us!

See you in the gallery!

Thank you so much for dropping by; your visit brings me joy!

These are stunning, Carol. That's a gorgeous die and I love how it takes centre stage on these but with added gorgeous details. I can't pick a favourite colourway, they are all beautiful.
