Butterfly Snippets
I haven't done too well with getting more Valentine's cards made so I decided the least I could do was use up some of these VD themed snippets I have:
I puttered around with them and came up with this simple card. I had a hard time getting a good shot of this card. Either the glitter heart or the butterfly's shadow was insisting on being a problem so I finally took it outside and held it into the sun.
I really wanted you to see that the butterfly had a brad for a head. That way I could enter him into Mrs. A's Butterfly Challenge where you were to use a butterfly (of course) and a brad. I know that isn't a very exciting use of a brad, but it is there.
After making the first card I thought that design would make a nice sympathy card so I made this second card. The papers I used were all snippets so I'm going to trot over to the Snippet Playground for the second week in a row. Probably the world is going to end or something.

Love the Clean and simple design. Very effective. Thank you for sharing with us at The Butterfly Challenge. - Myrna Challenge #22 Guest Designer
How is the new dust pan and brush doing! Do hope you not just sweeping the fluff under the carpet. Lol. 2 gorgeously CAS cards. Love the brad for his head which cos I'm having to work on my Ipad I can blow up to gigantic proportions. You might just want to hang on to some of those snippets. Just saying like. Thankyou for fluttering by #22. Hugs Mrs A.
They're both such pretty cards, and I love the snippets of dsp on each one! I see the brad-head, I see it! Good job working that brad in for the challenge!
I like the use of the brad on the butterfly, and that's a lovely butterfly die. Both cards are pretty, and the sympathy card seems especially serene (I tend to use butterflies on sympathy cards too.)
Very pretty! I am a fan of butterflies so I love both of these! You have a wonderful selection of snippets in your stash!
Love these Judy! Now that I've picked myself up and recovered from the shock - lovely to see you again :)
Super idea to use the brad for the butterfly's head - not many of us would have thought of doing that neat trick!
Hugs

Fabulous way to use up patterned paper and butterfly dies too.
Now THAT is a WOYWW desk shot!
I like both of the cards, even if you did stick a pin in the poor butterflies' heads.
Gorgeous snippets cards Judy, I like how you used the brad too, Cathy x
Hi Judy, two great snippet cards - I like the simple and clean design and the lovely butterflies - the brads for heads is a very good idea. Elizabeth xx
