#152 Spin The Butterfly Wheel with I for Inside Out Card.

Winners post for  #151 is now below.

Come on in.
Lets Spin the Butterfly Wheel.
Each challenge will be a letter of the Alphabet with  a choice of 3 Colours , 1 Theme and a specified  Card shape  all beginning with the chosen letter.

(The discerning amongst you will notice that there is an added page along the top under the Butterfly Banner called Card shapes.)
 I will be showing a link to a tutorial on this page with hints and tips for making the cards so just look under the letter being used for each challenge. 

The card shape is not mandatory but if you do use it you will qualify for the top prize. You must of course use your butterfly and the other elements.  The shapes will all be easy ones, just a different way to either fold or cut your basic cardbase.

Hope you are feeling better now, that jab certainly knocked you for six. Just shows how wise you were to stay at home for all these months, if the jab made you so poorly the disease itself would have made you much worse! Love this card design, off to have a closer look at how to make it.

I hope you feel better now after your jab - so many side effects, not good, bless you! Love these cards - I have never heard of inside out cards before! Take care and stay safe. Hugs xxxxxxxxx

A very beautiful model and I will do my best again.
Dear greetings and take care xx

Beautiful samples! Hope you are well now!

This card took me so much longer that I thought it would. I had wonderful ideas for the pop up inside part but it took me several tries and this is what I came up with. :) But in the end, I was glad to use the creative part of my brain and exercise those brain cells! Thanks so much for the chance to win and your ideas.

ionabunny said...

Gosh it's me!! Been a while since I managed to join the fun. I'm glad you are feeling better after the jab. Hope the net one goes better. Was super inspired by your cards and the lovely colours. Might have to try that fun card shape to LOL. Hugz

Becca Yahrling said...

I adore your beautiful cards, Mrs. A! Very pretty. I had fun making mine and was able to incorporate a couple of my challenge wins - yay! I love that you did a large word die on the inside of one. I think I will try that, too. Thanks so much for your inspiration and the chance to win! I'd like to play for 1st prize, please.

Donna Ellis said...

Wow! I've never heard of an inside out card before, ValeryAnne! How CLEVER! I had to create a new board just for this card, and pinned both your lovely examples. How incredible! Thanks for sharing! hugs, de

Lia said...

Aquarius said...

I've used the colours and possibly inking? Not to worry because I'm only playing along for fun this time. Pleased to hear you are starting to feel better.

KT Fit Kitty said...

Thanks for the challenge, Mrs. A! I hope you have recovered from your jab and are feeling much better! Your cards are absolutely gorgeous and I love this card fold - I plan to try the Inside Out Card next but didn't on my first entry - lucky #13 - I went with Inking, Inchworm, and Ivory. Will be back again for this challenge closes as I really want to do the Inside Out Card!

Janis said...

I was so distressed to hear you had reacted badly to your jab. Hope you continue to feel better and that the vaccine gives the protection they are hoping it will.
Love your beautiful and always gracious cards. Your inside out design is so intriguing! I wish I had more time to play around with your fabulous card folds. Homeschooling my 10 yr old granddaughter takes a HUGE bite out of my time each week....not to mention my energy! Wow. I don't remember homeschooling my own kids being THIS exhausting!! LOL! I am getting old old old! Ha.
Take care and thank you for another lovely challenge.

This inside-out shape was totally new to me, Mrs. A. I don't have any kind of border dies that made sense for this shape, so I went with a regular card. However, if my supply situation changes, I may revisit this intriguing idea.
Hope you're feeling better.

KT Fit Kitty said...

Well I did it! My entry #19 is Inside-Out Card theme only.
Not sure why these fun folds boggle me so much because your instructions were clear and it wasn't complicated. All in all, I'm happy I tried it... thanks for the inspiration!

AlisonC said...

What a fun card idea which I will definitely try again without making it so complicated. Thanks for all the instructions! Hope you are doing ok now. Hugs x
