#134 Spin The Butterfly Wheel with The Letter Q for Quarto Fold Card.
The colours are Quick silver/ Queen pink which is pale pink/ Quinacridone which is Magenta.
The 2 themes are Quotes and Quartz Gems.
Here are my first two inspiration cards to get you into the swing again after the christmas holidays.
First Card.
Using Quarto fold card/Queen pink/Quinacridone/Quotes/Butterflies.
This shape is called an Easy Petal Square Flap Card and cut from an 8" x 8" square of design paper.
The design papers are all from a Paper Pad by The Paper Boutique called 'Butterfly Ballet'. The die cut butterfly is Memory Box 'Pippi' and 'Isabella'. Below is the card opened out. I have put a Tutorial for this design over on the Butterfly Blog under the card shapes tag at the top of the page under the header banner. The quote is word generated and cut out using an SU punch.

This shape is an Envelope Lock Card and cut from an 9" x 8" sheet of cardstock. Again I have put a tutorial on how I made it over on the Butterfly blog under the Card shapes Tab. The design papers are all from Paper Pads by The Paper Boutique called 'Butterfly Ballet' and 'For Her'. I have used Poppy Stamps 'Whidbey' and Theo butterfly dies for the locking mechanism. Here is the card all folded up and locked.

Two clever folded cards and both very pretty. Thinking cap is on, Mojo a bit absent though!! Must get going.
Beautiful cards and shape.....looking forward in doing this shape.....tfs
What beautiful cards, Mrs. A!! I love the colors of the new Butterfly Challenge....pink, you know :)....and I think that even I might be able to manage one of these fancy folds. lol... I love that envelope lock style with the slot for the butterfly...but not sure I am brave enough to try that one. Thank you for always inspiring us to get out of our cocoons and take on a wonderful challenge!!
Hope the penguins all are safely and SECURELY stowed away in a cold home...so you can get on with your life. What a hoot!! Hope your shoulder is better, too.

Amazing both and the second one with the butterfly closure and the slot is really stunning! Love the papers, too!

Stunning cards, and like the quotes you have on the challenge blog! I have a butterfly fun fold on my blog today but it is purples and a Z fold. I will have to try your fun fold out!
Brilliant shape of card, love the colours and the papers but I have to say that bringing them out at this time of year is a tad cruel, feel sorry for the poor things. Great colours too.
