Fast and Fabulous Flight of the Butterfly

Bet you thought I was going to call this post "Going, Going, Gone...." again, right?  But I decided to opt for Fast and Fabulous today.  I wouldn't want to get too predictable now, would I?
Last night Deb and I held our monthly downline meeting.  Deb is one of my really good friends, and also happens to be my direct upline.  If anyone is 'to blame' for getting me hooked onto Stampin' Up! products, it is definitely her!   :)     Our downline meeting was a "Retirement Party" and Deb had everyone create a super-cute card using Flight of the Butterfly.  I was reminded once again of just how much I love this set and said it out loud, more than once.  I think my friends were laughing at just how many times I said I was in mourning over various stamps retiring.  No matter - they also know I am excited to see the new catalogue (next Monday for us demonstrators....I can't wait!).   I came home determined to use my own Flight of the Butterfly one more time before retirement, so devised a Fast & Fabulous card using this wonderful set.  I made essentially the same card 3 different times and mounted each onto a different-coloured card base.  Since I used Marina Mist, Pretty in Pink and Wild Wasabi inks, I used the same three colours of cardstock as my background choices.

And there you have them.  A little bit of stamping, a little Dazzling Diamonds and my Fast and Fabulous cards were done!   I am finding it hard to decide which colour combination I like best.



So tell me - which colour card is your favourite? 

Have a wonderful weekend and God Bless,     ~Cynthia     <><
