Squigglefly Challenge #16, SFC1614 Flutterby Butterfly

Welcome to the Squigglefly Challenge Blog!

Hello everyone! Welcome to this week's Squigglefly Challenge. First let's announce last week's winner.  Last week, our challenge was to share an Easter card.  The winner is  Virginia M for her beautiful card using Sweet Bunny from Squigglefly artist Diana Garrison

Please contact Holly at usyungs@gmail.com for your prize.

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This week's challenge is SFC1614 Flutterby Butterfly!
 

  The challenge this week is Flutterby Butterfly.  Please add a butterfly somewhere on your creation.  This can include a butterfly in your image, on your printed paper, or as an embellishment (like a brad, sticker, diecut, bling,...). We'd love for you to use a Squigglefly image, to be prize eligible it's required, but everyone is welcome to play along.

Let's start with some inspiration from the Holley Hobbyists:

 Pat Martin used a bright and beautiful butterfly on her card this week.  She also die cut out her sentiment to make it look like a book. How clever is that? This gorgeous sentiment is from artist Pamela Lehto called Even Today  Nice work Pat!

 

 Jan Marshall  created this wonderful stand up card.  Aren't the embossed butterflies adorable? She is using an image from artist Lynne Stansberry called Painting Springtime.  Don't you love how this adorable girl is painting the flowers?

 

Elizabeth Hart created a lovely spring card.  How great is that?  This new image is from artist Cheryl Alger called Farmer Sally.  What a cute bottlecap and I just love the ric rac. Gorgeous Work Elizabeth!

 



Charlene Mitchell made this sweet card using a bunny from artist Angela Donato.  This new image is called Funny Bunny.  She is also using a sentiment from Jess Holland  You Are Amazing.  Don't you love the butterflies on her card as well as in the image?

Darlene Pavlick created this lovely spring time card.  This elegant image is from artist Carmen Gamble called Easter Peeps.  Don't you love the bright beautiful butterfly and how it looks like the bunny is looking right at it?



 



 Tammy Hair created this beautiful spring card using a brand new image from artist  Judith Hart. This cutie is called Fetch.  This card was made with a saying from Squigglefly's own Holly Young.  Don't you love her coloring on this dog? Wow, Tammy!

 



And lastly, I (Holley Barnhart from Holley's Blog)  thought I would make a fun card using a brand new image and the matching sentiment from artist Lynn Stansbery called Well Helloooo!  I am using an embossed paper butterfly from Michaels.

 

I hope these cards have inspired you to make a card to play along this week.  You are always welcome to play no matter what images you use, but to be eligible for the prize, please use at least one stamp from Squigglefly!
