Butterflies galore!

So when dropping off my littlest munchkin at daycare early this past week, one of the teaches asked me if I was the one "who did scrapbooking and stuff". Turns out she wanted a set of invitations made for her cousin's Bachelorette party. She said her cousin liked butterflies, and when I pressed her for some colors, she said the bridesmaids would be wearing black. So without much to go on, I created four samples for her to choose from. This one is covered with glitter, but it just doesn't show up in the photo. Wing stamps from Sunday International, vines from Rhonna Farrar (Autumn Leaves), and sentiment from PTI.
This was my favorite sample! I loved the celery DP and the wing stamps used on this one. The wings are from SundayInt. again, and the sentiment is based on a SU stamp that I have ordered but hasn't arrived yet. (I just created a look-alike in Word and printed it out.)
The layout for this design was CASEd from this card, and I used SU's desiger prints PP and CS, Rhonna Farrar butterfly stamp and PTI sentiment again.The colors and LO for this sample were also cased from here. I used the same SU look-alike (printed in Word) sentiment just to give her the idea. The butterfly stamp here is Verve Visual.
So I dropped them off to her and let her stew on which one she liked and wanted reproduced. I will find out on Monday!

Hello, I'm coming out of lurking to say: I like the blue one, but the green is definitely a close second.

Oh WOW! I'm glad I'm not the one who has to decide! They are all beautiful! I think I like the first (black and yellow), but if I scroll past it, I can't decide LOL! Great job on these beauties!

They're all stunning. At first, I thought I'd choose the green (if it were up to me), but then I saw the blue...

She's going to have a difficult time of deciding since they're all so nice!
