The SCS Try a New Technique challenge - Transform a map - I punched my butterflies out of a map from a National Geographic.
Less is More Challenge - Frame It - I embossed a square Nestability frame in the card base.
CAS on Sunday - Flutterby - I used three butterflies on my card.
Addicted to CAS - code word WINGS - there are 6 of them on my card!

Lovely use of the MUSE card for your sympathy card.
Wow! Beautiful cards! I really love those butterflies, clever! Your sympathy card is gorgeous, too!
Both of these cards are so amazing. I love how those butterflies look punched out of that map and placed on the white. And the softness of the Muse card is lovely and comforting. :)
