Time is whooshing past at an alarming rate. It is May already and another challenge has started over on the Butterfly blog.
These are my cards for your inspiration. There is so many designs for making these cards. I got my ideas from 'Jamie Rodgers' Craftmainia YouTube and are just the tip of the iceberg on what you can make. I could have made a lot more so think I will be revisiting this card shape again in the future.
Card 1.
This is making a standard two pillar card and is Version I in my Tutorial on the Butterfly blog.
Creative Fingers #254 Anything goes.
Lil Patch of Crafty Friends #205 Anything goes.
Die Cut Divas # Tic/Tac/Toe I have used Flowers/The word Love/ Patterned paper.
The Crafting Challenge # Add an embellishment.
Card 2.
This is making again a two pillar card but wider this time and is Version II in my Tutorial.
The large bloom is by Woodware 'Camelia' coloured with my Graph'it markers. Stamped and then fussy cut out. The white die cut is an SU punch and the stickers and pearls from my stash. Butterfly is also a punch and in my stash waiting to be used.
Entering this card into the following challenges:
Creative Creases #56 Anything goes with a fun fold.
Polka Doodles Craft Challenge #wk 18 Anything goes.
613 Avenue Create # Anything goes Say it with Flowers.
Sheepski Designs #74 Flower Power.

Card 3.
This is making a one pillar card with the panel coming from the centre of the pillar and is Version III in my Tutorial.

Last Card.
This is again making a one pillar card but the panel comes out from the back of the pillar and is Version IV in my Tutorial. Very similar to Version I but construction is made with two pieces of card.
The butterfly swirl is by Tonic Studios 'Butterfly Blooms 293720' The butterfly frieze is also a punch by Tonic. The sentiment is actually the left over part of the sticker. I had already used the sentiment on a previous project so I simply cut round the edges and mounted onto a piece of white card which then showed up the words in relief. (Waste not want not).
Entering this card into the following challenges.:
A Perfect Time to Craft. #5 Anything goes.
Crafts Galore encore #111 Anything goes.
Incy Wincy Designs # Funfolds or/ Summer fun.
Tic,Tac,Toe Challenges #207 I have chosen Die Cut/Free/ Birthday.
I hope you will have time to come and have a play. The challenge is running for 3 weeks as usual so will end on Tuesday 30th May 8pm (GMT).

Your samples look just amazing, Mrs A.!! Love any version of the Pillar folding and your interpretations! The first one looks very sweet and elegant, the plum dotted butterflies with the pearls are just gorgeous! My absolutely favourite is the second one, because of the awesome paper and flower, great colouring!
The third card is sweet and romantic, perfect for a young woman! Fabulous paper once again and love so much the dimensional flowers and the touches of gold!
The last one looks great with the white butterflies swirl and border (I have this lovely Tonic punch border too, thanks for remember it to me... :D )
Hugs
Gosh Mrs A you have been busy...love all your cards and what a lovely design
