Well hi there! It’s Thursday, which means it’s time for a new challenge at CAS Colours & Sketches. This time we have some nature-inspired colors for you.
I’ve decided to combine the color challenge with a few other challenges. The Paper Players challenge is to use at least one butterfly on a clean and simple card. At Less is More, the challenge is to use three stamps; my three are the butterfly, the wordy sentiment, and the “happy birthday”. Since I didn’t want the ends of the chocolate brown ribbon to show, I’ve attached the turquoise card front to a blush pink card base. The butterfly was stamped onto a scrap of white cardstock, colored, and fussy cut. The left side is attached directly to the card front, but the right side is adhered with dimensional adhesive to add a little visual interest to the card.
Be sure to see what the rest of the CC&S design team has done with these colors! Then create your own card and share it with us at the CC&S blog. You have until 1:00 p.m. Eastern time Wednesday, April 27 to enter the challenge. Thanks for stopping by today!
Supplies:
Stamps: Flutter By (Lawn Fawn); Birthday Greetings (Gina K. Designs)
Cardstock: Blushing Bride, Tempting Turquoise (Stampin’ Up); Pure Luxury White (GKD)
Ink: Chocolate Chip (SU)
Other: Chocolate Chip satin ribbon, dimensionals (SU); markers (Copic)

Such a vibrant, striking card! I love the bold colour. Nicely done!
Gorgeous combination of colours here and although vibrant blue it’s such a peaceful card with a beautiful sentiment.

Nice CAS card…and the sentiment is just perfect! Thanks for sharing at Less is More!
Butterflies definitely inspired a few of us this week! I especially like the ribbon and the stitching details – they elevate the card to another level. Love it! Caro x
Nice use of coloured cardstock and clever combination of challenges! A super CAS card showing that white space doesn’t have to be white!
