Twofer Card Challenge # 29 ~ BUTTERFLIES!

WELCOME friends!
I know it has been awhile, but I had to play along with the TWOFER Challenge this time because it was BUTTERFLIES!  You must go check out all the fabulous cards made by the team!
You will be inspired, I was!
I used an MFT stamp called Brilliant Butterflies, there are five different designs of butterflies in the set.  I used the same butterfly design on the bottom of card on the left as well as the ONE butterfly on the card on the right.
What makes these so fun is mixing up all the colors and getting an assortment of glorious butterflies in many colors, I have a stack of them now ready to go for more cards.
Here are the cards up close and personal!
On this card I used an Altenew Dotted Debossing Cover Plate for the background.
My sentiment is from The Greetery:  Comforting commands
And the sentiment is from SSS: handwritten borders.



Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!

Heart Hugs, friends!

Those butterflies are very cool. Both cards are so pretty and the colors are great.

Beautiful! The line of 3 with the scripty sentiment between is perfect, and I love the bg and sentiment on card #2

So glad you're playing along with us this month Colleen and both of your cards are FABULOUS!! I love the MFT set you used and I'm wondering why I don't have it?!! Think I NEED to go shopping!! What a great set to use for this challenge...I love how you can change out the colors and the designs on the butterflies and it's like this set was just made for The Twofer Challenge! Two different cards and two different designs...you nailed it Colleen! Thanks so much for sharing these beauties with us at The Twofer Challenge!! Hugs. :0)

Those are some awesome butterflies, the black overlays really make them stand out and they are so whimisical and one can't help but smile looking at them. You're sure to have fun working with the extra's you created. The triple stack of butterflies is so lovely and your second card with the embossed panel is so serene. Thank you for playing along with Twofer Card Challenge #29.

I could be forgetting, but I don't remember seeing these amazing fluttery patterned butterfly images before! They are so fun, Col! I love the triple delight they are on your TOY card with a great mat detail on each side! And your encouragement card is so pretty with the debossed texture and wonderful sediment! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #29! Hugs, Darnell

What a delightful, delicious butterfly image you chose for this gorgeous twofer, Colleen ... it's delicate and dreamy ... and wonderfully stylised! Great texture on your solo butterfly ... and fabulous colour choices on the triple stack! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Twofer! Anita :)

Absolutely adore your cards, Colleen! How fun that we both used that set & got HM! I may kick myself for not getting the dies--maybe eventually. Stay well!
