We are now onto the 11th letter of the alphabet which is K. Winners results for #126 are in the post below. Make sure you check back as it could be you. Can I please ask that Winners do acknowledge their prize in the comments on the Winners post as well as emailing their details to me. This way I will know to expect an email. Please state if you are only playing for fun so that it gives someone else the chance to win.
Please note that challenge is running for 2wks.
Come on in.
Lets Spin the Butterfly Wheel.
Each challenge will be a letter of the Alphabet with a choice of 3 Colours and 2 Themes all beginning with the chosen letter.
New for this Yr. The 7th element of the wheel is a card shape.
(The discerning amongst you will notice that there is now an added page along the top under the Butterfly Banner called Card shapes.)
There will be a card shape for the letter being used for each challenge and I will be showing a tutorial on this page with hints and tips for making the cards.
The card shape is not mandatory but if you do use it you will qualify for the top prize without having to combine all of the other 6 elements onto your card. You must of course use your butterfly. The shapes will all be easy ones, just a different way to either fold or cut your basic cardbase.
If you don't want to use the card shape then
You can either choose a Theme or a Colour from the wheel + Butterfly to be entered for the 1st Prize.
If you use a Butterfly + a Theme + a Colour from the wheel then
you will be entered into the 2nd Prize.
Please state in your post which part of the wheel you are using to play with.
So lets get started.
The wheel is
K
and
Kinetic Card.
N.b. Kinetic card means a card involving a moving part.
I have made a tutorial showing how to make a very simple moving card.
Please see card shapes tag above.
Your 6 elements are Key Lime /Kobe/Kobi/Kraft/Knots+your Butterfly.
N.b Kobe = Dark Burgundy
Kobi = Pink Lavender
BTW. These colours really do exist and are not made up by me!

N.B. Challenge is back to 2 weeks.
Fabulous card, love the swinging heart with the butterfly. Thanks for another challenge
ReplyDeleteOooh, I'm going to have to check out that kinetic card design and give it a try. I made a similar card years back and it was a total disaster as I ended up making it backwards. Thank you for explaining the colors Kobe and Kobi, because I had no idea what they were! Looking forward to this challenge
ReplyDeleteI don't know where you find all your butterfly prizes but they are all and always lovely! Thank you for mine which you sent a few weeks ago but I only received now after holidays... i really liked this kinetic card so may make another...
ReplyDeleteI posted my Kinetic Card and I thought it was going to be complex to do but it was fairly easy to do....I'm learning so many card folding technique...
ReplyDeleteThanks Mrs. A
A lovely colour combination, are you sure you didn't make up those names? The kinetic card is beautiful. I'd like to have a go. x
ReplyDeleteThis was quite a challenge for me. I couldn't get it to open and move the front panel at first. But I kept at it. I'm still not sure how it's supposed to go together but it seems to be working now. Good thing I'm not mailing this card because I cut the wrong one apart and reused it so all the paper is multi-layered!! :) :)
ReplyDeleteI'd like to try this again and also the second kind you showed with the coin/slider. Thanks again for the chance to win!
Made this card for the Playground challenge and realise it just about fits your challenge as well even if it only the colour and butterflies. Only playing for fun anyway!
ReplyDeleteAm loving this Kinetic card fold and am now onto my third - not managed the second version though! Happy Crafting! Susan
ReplyDeleteI just love your beautiful kinetic card and wish I were a more dedicated student of your amazing card folds. I do well just to get one card of any kind in here....usu just under the wire!
ReplyDeleteI was excited to see these recycled colors on the wheel this time because they are easy colors for me....the kobe and kobi, at least! I use a lot of pink and burgundy on my cards.
Thank you for another lovely challenge and for the wonderful inspiration from your always gracious cards.
