This first one is for F4A129 to use ombre, or shading on your card, Just Add Ink's Challenge #130 to use blue and bling and for Stampin' Royalty's Challenge #136 to use the photo below for inspiration. I used the different shades of turquoise blue and silver for my inspiration. I bought this Mixed Bunch set because I had seen some many of these gorgeous butterflies around blogland and just had to try this technique today and I totally LOVE it! These butterflies are just gorgeous!
And here's my card.

My next card is for Friday MashUp's Challenge #71 to use black, white and some bling, for Create with Connie and Mary's Challenge #213 for the sketch and SUO Challenge #51 to use some Designer Series Papers in a creative way. I used some of mine to make a ruffled punched flower! Is that creative enough?!
And here's my card.

And that's all from me today folks! Thanks for stopping by!
