Belts and Buckles

A new challenge awaits over on the butterfly blog. It is the turn of the shaped cards and this time it's
As usual you will find the tutorial for the card over on the blog on the tab ' card shapes' which is under the banner header at the top of the page. Card shapes are all listed alphabetically .

Here are my inspiration cards for the challenge.
On  this card I have used the colours from the wheel of  Baby pink / Bud Green / Burgundy.

Design paper is a digital one called Shabby Roses by Cameo Shop which is on Etsy.  Sentiment is by SU from their 'Wetlands'  Stamp set aR 0270. The butterflies are by Joanna Sheen from her butterflies and dragon Fly die set SD 037.
Entering this card into the following challenges:
Krafty Chicks #700  All occasions.
Allys Angels #78 Anything goes.
The Paper Funday Challenges #61 Anything goes with optional Lets celebrate.

On  this next  Belt and buckle  card I have used the colours from the wheel of  Baby pink / Buttermilk / Bluebell.
Design paper is a magazine freebie from Making Cards Oct 2016  'Pretty Pastels'and I have managed to use quite a few of the pre cut embellishments  shown in my previous posts.  The buckle is a Penny Black die called 'Antique Frame' which I teamed with another die by  Card Deco called stitch round. The border is a tonic punch and the butterfly from the same set as on the card above. 
Entering this card into the following challenges:
Make My Mondays #218 Use your Patterned papers.
Creative Fingers #270 Anything goes.
Love To Craft #78 Anything goes.
The Crafters Cafe #304  Fancy edges. 
The Creative Crafters #72  Anything goes.


My last card is inspiration for the non shape part of the challenge where you can elect to just use the other parts of the wheel. 
I have the colours Baby pink /Buttermilk/ Burgundy. The sentiment and a Border.

The design paper is by Violet Studio from their Essential  Collection.  The initial B stamp is by Clarity and coloured in with my Promarkers. and a silver gel pen.  The border is from a die set by Creative Expressions CED 7127. The sentiment is by woodware from their Cosmos collection Stamp set and the small butterfly is a punch. 
Entering this card into the following challenges:
