*SweetStamps Challenge #133: Butterflies

Morning sweeties-
Thank you for stopping by today!!  
So, were you lucky enough to have the day off yesterday?
If so, hope you enjoyed the day off, with some good and relaxation.

So today at SweetStamps, we have a brand new weekly challenge for you!!
This weeks theme is:
BUTTERFLIES
For my cards today, I kept them very simple with lots of white space. 
I am using a brand new SweetCuts die called: Butterfly Window.
This is such a unique and wonderful die to have, for anyone for love butterflies.
I masked the edges of my paper and rubbed the distress inks to create the background. 
For the first card, I used white cardstock to cut the image and then filled the empty spaces with black cardstock, which were leftovers  from the card below. 
The sentiment is from another newly released stamp set: Swirly Doodle Butterflies
Just love the way this looks and the colors are so bold .
Really love this butterfly die.  This has become a new favorite of mine!

So I hope that you will join us this week and show us your beautiful butterfly creations. 
Can't wait to see what you create for us.
