Seize the Birthday Challenge - Butterflies or Hummingbirds

 
This is going to be a fabulous gallery!
 
I think my favorite cards have either birds or butterflies.  Designers just rock out these images and make gorgeous cards. I'm looking forward to seeing the gallery for this challenge.

I have so many butterfly images and dies, but I always seem to go back to my favorite from Hero Arts; Antique Flowers & Butterflies. [I was happy I was able to find this set still available AND, for only $10!]  It's been my go to for about 15 years! 

I am really liking the trend of the black & white background with the color over the top.  Worked beautifully with this set.  Of course, I used another go-to, my Simon Says Sentiment Strips.

That's it for me.  You can play along over at Seize the Birthday Challenge.  Have fun~


Thanks for stopping by~

I believe I have this stamp set as well - one of the first I purchased. And I must say, your card is making me regret that I didn't use it this time myself!! But I am also happy to see a charming inspiration to use it! Gorgeous card, Vicki!

Those butterflies are my favourites too, and I love how you've coloured them, such a cool effect keeping the background neutral, Cathy x
