Black, White and Orange Hello

I made this card to send to Daja for the March Card Chain Challenge.  I used the Colour Option (Black, White & One Colour of Your Choice - my choice was orange) and the Theme Option (Friendship).

To make this card I used:
     6" x 6" white matt card blank
     Altenew 'Simply Hello' and Tattered Lace 'Mini Butterfly' dies
     Forever in Time 'Vintage 2 Perfect Prints' paper
     Snippets of white matt card and orange card (oops, I forgot to take a photo!)

I trimmed a piece of black and white paper to 5" x 5", layered it onto orange card and attached it to the card blank.  I die cut 'hello' from snippets of both orange and white card, the white die cut was attached to the orange 'hello' creating a shadow effect and attached to the top corner of the card.  I die cut two small butterflies from white card and two from orange card.  The white butterflies where layered onto the orange butterflies and attached to the front of the card.

I am entering the following challenges:
     Ally's Angels - Anything Goes
     Love to Craft - Anything Goes
     Love to Scrap - Anything Goes
     Snippets Playground - Challenge 477

This is the lovely card I received from Jeanne:

May all your dreams come true

I made this quick birthday card for a friend using my last piece of this lovely butterfly paper.  I'm entering the Alphabet Challenge 'V for Vellum', Seize the Birthday 'Anything Goes' and Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge 'Anything Goes'.

Card blank: 5" x 5" white matt
Stamp: Woodware 'Most Wonderful Birthday'
Ink: Brilliance Graphite Black
Card: Black matt
Paper: Forever in Time ''Vintage 2', Vellum
Other: Wink of Stella

I trimmed the butterfly paper to about 1cm smaller than the card blank and layered it onto black card.  I stamped the sentiment onto vellum and trimmed it when the ink had dried.  I wrapped the vellum around the top of the paper and attached it on the rear with tape.  The whole panel was then attached to the card front.  To finish I highlighted the butterfly with a Wink of Stella.
