BUTTERFLY CHALLENGE NO 117....TWOFER CHALLENGE NO 13 ...STARS


Hi, and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

I really enjoyed my new singing group it's small but very friendly, and we hope more people will join us soon.

I was inspired by Mrs A's
post in which she posted some more inspiration for the Butterfly Challenge, and this gave me an idea for another card for the challenge.
I also have made a second card so I can join in the TWOFER CHALLENGE NO 13 over at Darnell's.
The Male Birthday Card was inspired by a card made by my friend Christine HERE

So here is what I made.





  These are 6"x6" in size.
I used lots of the Snippets left over from my last card for the Butterfly one, and no Snippets on the second one.
I think I have used all 7 elements yet again for the Butterfly one.





Thank you so much for your visit, and precious time.
I really love to read your wonderful comments.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.

I would like to enter the following challenges with these.

Very clever combination of challenges, Jenny! It took me a minute to find the butterfly on your beautiful spring thinking-of-you design! It's such a pretty feminine card! And I really love your manly birthday card with all the stars and patterns in steely neutral colors! The insides are fabulous, too! Thank you so much for playing in Twofer Card Challenge #13!

What a deliciously spring like 'thinking of you' shaker card, Jenny ... beautifully detailed with those shimmery stars ... and great dimension from the blooms and butterfly! Your birthday card is stylish and cool ... just the right touch of dark shimmer with those patterned greys ... star-ily handsome! Thanks so much for your visit and sweet words ... and for playing along with us at Twofer! Anita :)

I love the incredibly different "feel" of each of your cards, Jenny! Your shaker card is a gorgeous combination of yellow and green that exudes a spring time freshness! Your birthday card is a great combination of stars and stripes for an all-star masculine birthday! Thanks for joining in the fun with us at the Twofer Card Challenge!
