Week two of the Butterfly challenge and as promised I am back to show you a simple Kinetic Slider card. You will find the full instructions /tutorial over on the Butterfly challenge under the card shapes tab or select here to be taken straight to it.Scroll down for the instructions under Version II .
I have used Kinetic card/Key lime/Kobe/Kobi /Butterflies from the wheel.
The image is by W plus 9 from their Flora and Fauna stamp set. Coloured using my promarkers. and a gold gel pen. Butterfly is a Dinky Die by Xcut. This is a single layer die but I drew round the die to make the solid background which I coloured with a gold pen and then added platinum stickles to show through the die cut pattern on the top layer. I used my SU punch 'Large Word Window' to create the slider element and a gold sentiment sticker and gold edging from my stash. The butterfly moves freely between the flower heads using the slider element.
My second card uses Kraft/Knot/Key lime/Kobi/Kobe/Butterfly.
Design papers are by 'The Works'. I distressed the edges using my T.H. Distress tool.The butterflies are two different dies by Dovecraft cut from the kraft card and then replaced back into the apertures after a bit of bling was added to them. String was from a clothes tag which was in my stash. As the SU punch was still out on my desk I used it to cut another label and adhered the rub on sentiment by 'Pebbles' onto it.
Do hope I have inspired you to play along.
I am in the wars again as I have been bitten on my left foot (whilst out in the garden enjoying the nice weather) and the inevitable happened my foot swelled as I reacted badly to the bite so now back on steroid cream and pills to counteract it. I wouldn't mind so much but the little suckers get to me even with me having woolly socks on which is not much fun in hot weather.

Wow what lovely card designs Valery. I have the same problems with bugs stinging me and I tend to be allergic to the bite. Hope your foot gets better soon.

Hi Mrs A. Two gorgeous cards, love the slider card, a lovely idea to have the butterfly moving.
Sorry to hear about your reaction to the bite, only had this happen once from multiple bites in the same area - not nice.
