This was made with the negative pieces from a peel off medallion sticker. Its a half folded front and there is another circle behind the front one for writing on when the card is open.
The oval here was saved from a shop bought card, I used cuttlebug embossing on the blue panels and cut the sentiment and the flourish with my cricut machine.
This is an unusual fold. Its called a Spring card cos when you open it the front Springs up and stands on its corner as shown here.
I got pretty excited when a friend shared this technique for making Very pretty delilcate butterflies. I love them and they are so easy to do and fun too.
I took it a step further and stamped some of the butterflies in black instead of white to go with this Monochrome layout.

Love the black and white. You did not show that one on the Cricut mb, I do not think? I always love your butterflies! Such a symbol of hope and new life! TFS
Love your black and white butterflies! I don't think you posted them on the Cricut mb. I always love your butterflies. such a symbol of hope and new life!
Thank you so much for your lovely comments and you have hit the nail right on the head. That is the very reason I love butterflies so much, they are beautiful but also they symbolise the new life I have in Christ. The transformation in me is as dramatic as the transformation that a caterpillar goes through in becoming that beautiful free creature we have grown to love.
I did post this on the cricut message board here's the link. that board has been moving so fast lately I think we are all missing a lot of good stuff.

These are beautiful cards Kazz. You have been busy!
Love your cards, Kazz. What paper/card do you use when you print, I have an inkjet printer and it smudges when I try to colour things in.
I just use regular copy paper or thin white card. Maybe you are printing on photo quality which puts down a lot of ink. Give your design time to dry before colouring. I also use inkjet printer.
