I rarely make 6×6 cards, but I should! I made this butterfly birthday card using a sketch from Simon Says Stamp. Since I wanted to have many layers, I knew I was going to need a bigger card.
I like the layout of his card. It really allows you to use lots of different patterned papers together. I used a retired paper pack from Stampin’ Up. The whole paper pack was the same color, but I wanted to add some accents. I paired it with black cardstock, and a little bit of olive green.
Butterfly rubberstamps are so popular right now. They are everywhere I look. The Birthday Wishes stamp is from the Inkadinkado Garden Party set. It’s one of those stamp sets that gets often.
I love these colors so they were really easy to work with. Bright pink and black always make a bold statement.

Great job on the color challenge and the sketch. I like the touch of green on the mat. It really makes it all pop out. Very pretty and soft.

You’re welcome! I’m glad you got it in time. Don’t worry about missing posts. Sometimes, life gets in the way of stamping!
I love your card. It’s so pretty! And your right the sketch is a really good one! I may have to try making a card using it.
such a lovely card and yes you should do more square cards since you did such a great job with this one. I love the LO, papers and the butterfly image.

Lovely, lovely card!
Thank you for joining us this week for the Sassy Cheryl’s challenge!
Pam, this is so beautiful! I love all the colors and the layers. You made it all work without be too much! Love the extra sentiment and flowers that weren’t on the sketch.
You did a great job with the inspiration photo and colors! 6×6 is a really big creative area – I’d probably take a day or two to finish a card that size! LOL
What a beautiful card, beautiful colors and great layers.
This is one lovely card! I LOVE the layout & colors you used….very nice work Hun!
Awesome card…love the papers, design and embellishments.
