#143 Spin The Butterfly Wheel with Z for Z Fold Card.

First,  all prize winners from #138 - #141 have now all had their gift certificates sent out to them. Please check your in boxes/spam/junk emails for an email. If you think you should have received and haven't please let me know. 
Second I have been beset with Gremlins so I apologise for the delay in getting the latest challenge up and running. My printer decided to give up the ghost when it needed a new ink cartridge right in the middle of my downloading the papers and images I wanted to use and then once that got sorted my computer decided not to miss out on the party and to crash out on me too. 

Fingers and toes all crossed  that I am now all sorted so here goes. 

We are now onto the last  letter of the alphabet which is Z. Winners results for #142  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.

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.

No surprises as to the last card shape!!

Everything is not all as it seems though and I am going  to make you work for your money!!

The wheel is

Z

and 

 Z Fold Card.

  Your 6 elements are:

Z Fold  Card/ Zenchua/Zinwaldite/ Zinc/Zigzag/ Zebra

+your Butterfly.

N.B. Yes these colours really do exist!!

Zenchua =  Light Purple

 Zinwaldite  = Flesh Tone

Zinc = Bluish Silver 

Zebra = striped. 

         

Here is my inspiration for you .
