I LOVE these Virtual Carmaking Parties that OWH puts on a few times a year! These are so much fun that I am hopeful to be able to host a card challenge in the future. The first challenge is from Erika and is looking for zig zags or chevrons. WHELL! I searched high and low in all my stuff and had to admit I have no chevron stamps, no chevron punches, no chevron embellishments and no chevron paper. How the heck did that happen???
So off I go to my big box craft store, which is merely an outpost not a full fledged store to see what I could find. Um, Nothing!! How very sad. On the way home I remembered some yummy May Arts chevron ribbon. I am saaaaved! How lucky for me that this card also fulfills challenge #2 hosted by Misty and she was looking for animals. I didn't plan it to be a double and I'm not getting out of making more cards, fear not! I have enough of this butterfly and medallion (K&Co.) to make 3 more.

Jusst Beautiful!!!!!!!!!
Love your card! Great layout and fabulous ribbon. I went crazy not one time but two times by buying those butterfly die cuts when they were on clearance at Micheal's. Big box stores can be hard on the wallet!!
what a beautiful butterfly!
That ribbon is perfect :) what a great card! So elegant!
Nice job Lynn! I agree that the VCMPs are so much fun... half treasure hunt, half craftiness. That chevron ribbon is beautiful and just perfect with the butterfly. I hope you didn't have to go too far to your craft store only to find nothing and then, to find out you had something all along. LOL :)
Chevron ribbon? Genius! Now that I haven't seen - good thing you didn't buy anything because I'm lovin that ribbon! You made such an elegant card and the butterfly is beautiful. Thanks for playing along with my challenge!
Fantastic job Lynn! Who'd a thunk, chevron ribbon? Love the butterfly & embossing too!
Thanks for playing along with my part of OWH VCMP.
Hummer Hugs,
Misty
