I made this card for my brother-in-law's birthday based on a card I saw on the cover of the latest Papercrafts magazine which used punched out butterflies from a Martha Stewart punch adhered on top of buttons. I changed the orientation to fit the CAS63 Sketch challenge, added piercing to fit the TLC269 challenge to use paper piercing on a card and Verve's beach release party color challenge to use orange, aqua and green. Three challenges on one card, not bad huh? I hope my brother-in-law likes it.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my card

Wow, great CAS look! I love the button & butterfly look and the piercing is the perfect way to set off the sentiment. Great color combo to use with it, too (plus I'm impressed that you had an orange button!).
