The Butterfly Challenge has a new theme/colour running.
Now just in case this has sent you running for the hills
let me help by giving you some suggestions.
Wire comes in all forms so think staples, wire mesh,
pipe cleaners (those furry ones have wire inside and are white).
Wire edged ribbon makes easy flowers.
Wire edged ribbon makes easy flowers.
Thin wire (florist wire) can be used for flower stems,
making a washing line, wire hearts, wire hangers etc.
How about spiral springs for a pop up card!!
Here are a further two cards to start you off.
I have used simple wire to make a loose coil of circles.
Embossing folder is by Crafts-Too called Spots.
Adhered to a white base card and raised on 3D pads
Precut circles and the sentiment are from craft topper sheets in my stash.
Butterfly is by SU and punched out twice for dimension.
White pearls also from my stash.

Here I have used a peel of sticker in white
by Elizabeth Craft Designs called Flowers in Square
on my background card again raised on 3D pads.
Sentiment tag from the same topper sheet as above.
I did attach with ds tape first and then added the paper clip over
the top . Butterflies are a smaller SU punch.

Oh my, the idea of a paper clip for "wire" is really briliant!! Great tip! Your cards are both lovely, and my favourite is the second one, so elegant with that sticker!

These are both great! Love how they are mostly white with just a splash of other colors! Thanks for joining us this week at Use Your Stuff - Amanda DT
Two very clever cards Mrs A., and do you know I've never made a white on white card? However today I made a rule that wherever possible every single card I make has to be a Christmas one as I m so woefully behind.
Not sure butterflies qualify as Christmas theme. Love your use of peel offs too, must use them more!
