A mid-month Stampalot reminder

Hi folks!
Lynne and I are the featured DT members this month at Stampalot Challenge. If you want to read more about us then pop over to the Stampalot Challenge blog. We have both made some more cards for the Take flight theme. Here is mine:
As usual I used a range of Distress and Adirondack inks and my ink dusters to create the background. The butterflies were coloured in with promarkers before triple embossing and decoupaging onto the background.  Stamps by Inkylicious on this one.
I also made a tag
For this one I used Hero Arts stamps and some fabulous two tone glitter that looks green one way and bronze the other.
 This was made in much the same way as the card, but I didn't triple emboss the butterflies this time.
Lynne and I have spent many happy hours finding craft shops to visit. We started off locally and then would look for places a bit further afield  -  That's how we met Brenda at Sir Stampalot.
 Thanks for looking and I hope you have the chance to join in with this months theme. Remember you can enter up to 6 challenges including ours and you can enter more than once as long as they are different projects eg a card and a gift box.

Terrific both but it is the tag that particularly delights me. The glitter looks amazing & I love the crisp green against the blue with the orange of the butterflies really popping. Brilliant colour theory lesson!

Two beautiful pieces of inspiration for us all Sally. Butterflies always push the right buttons for me and grasses come a close second so combine these with your clever use of those ink dusters and I couldn't fail to admire your designs.
