Welcome Back
The Winners for #158 have been published in post below this one.
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.

What an interesting fold Mrs A and a brilliant card. It always amazes me how you come up with so many unusual folds. xx
This looks a really interesting fold - looking forward to attempting this one.
My goodness - that's an amazing card!!
Oh my. What an awesome card. I have been looking forward to Q cos I love your Quarto fold and the Q options are always fun. This one looks a bit fussy for me, but very awesome. Hope to join the fun this time. Hugz
Wow, what a card! I love the pretty papers you used. This was a bit involved to make, but not hard at all. I am going to make another one that's smaller and will fit into a 5.5" envelope. I would like to play for 2nd prize (using green with the quad & butterflies). Thanks, Mrs. A! Hope you are doing well & prayers sent your way. Becca xoxo
Thank you for more amazing inspiration!
Your card is just exquisite and the fold is really impressive as well. I nearly forgot to enter my card this time around and I loved the color choices so much I was determined!
I love your card and am amazed at the folding styles which I have never conquered. I tried to leave my entry but it it didn't seem to take so here is my link if you just want to see it. https://createdbybb.blogspot.com/2021/08/butterflies.html
That is one amazing card design, Mrs.A!! Such a gorgeous creation.
Thank you for this challenge. I am squeaking in using only the yellow option. Life MUST slow down sometime so I can get back to cardmaking!! Maybe in the autumn....AFTER the cat hop! :)
Thank you for another very lovely and gracious challenge.
