Card 1.
Here I am using Circles/Cornflower/Celadon/Cardinal/Butterflies.
The image is a stamp that I bought last year and not used yet by AALL Create #278 Passion flower. I have one of these growing on a trellis in my side garden where it is protected from the wind and the worst of the weather. The design paper is an oldie Magazine freebie from Hunkydory 'Boutique Chic' Paper Crafter June 2016 issue. It has three of the required colours on it. The stamp is coloured with my trusty Promarkers/silver gel pen and the silver circle stickers are from my stash. All attached to blue cardstock to make the cardbase.

Card 2.

I am using another stamp that I have never used before that I bought quite a time ago before even slim line cards became popular. This one is by Studio Light 'Smile Like a Flower.' Coloured using my promarkers ,gold gel pen and clear Wink of stella. The flowers really sparkle. The design paper is an unknown magazine freebie. Butterflies are my SU punch and the gold circles from my stash.

Card 3.
Here I am using /Cornflower /Celadon/Cardinal/Butterflies.
The challenge is running until Tuesday 22nd February 8pm (GMT) and I hope you will come and spend some time in the butterfly garden. The squirrels are having a busy time in there at the moment as they have learnt how to open the box we bought for them which has their own special food in.
Yes they do actually sit on the little red stools, open the lid with their paws and stick their heads right in the box to eat.!! The Doc said they would never do it but it only took them a week to suss out.
Stay safe and well
Hugs

Such beautifully done cards, each one of them! And how wonderful is your squirrel feeder! We have lots of squirrels in our backyard, they love our oak tree. I may have to get them a similar feeding station!
Thanks so much for joining us at Stamping Sensations this month!

You made beautiful inspirational cards ValeryAnne.
Butterflies are special, but squirrels in your garden are also fantastic... they are so smart!
My card for the challenge is coming soon.
Love xx
Three beautiful cards Mrs. A. Love the designs.
The Squirrels are being spoilt with a brilliant feeder!! They are so clever, finding their food.
Big hugs, Carol S.xxx
A lovely display and how nice it is to see you at Stamping Sensations with a beautiful vibrant creation, thank you.
We had a Passiflora which flourished for years and then suddenly just died and have never replaced it, probably should as they are such pretty delicate plants.
Our squirrels seem far more intent on eating bird food than their own, apart from the two black ones who are very timid compared with that the grey ones and rarely come down into the immediate garden areas.

A delightful selection of cards, thank you for sharing at Stamping Sensations. Squirrels are really smart:) Vee xx
Indeed those squirrels are smart little creatures, Anne! Now you just need to grab a photo of them sitting on their little bar stools. I would just watch them all day and not get anything done! Your design triplets are all beautiful! Thank you for inspiring everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
Three lovely samples, and the food box for the squirrels is just stunning, such pretty box and clever squirrels!! I think they have had a bad time with the storm, so well done with the yummy food for those little friends!
What a pretty cards! It goes perfectly with our theme for this month “Anything Goes”. I love your coloring too. Thanks for joining us at Pattie’s Creations Design Challenge.
