Butterfly Blooms


Hello everyone!  Just flying by with a quick post tonight. We were out all day enjoying some beautiful weather.  Sunny and in the low 50's and the same for the next couple of days.  I think Spring is finally here! Yay!!

My card today reminds me of Spring - flowers and butterflies!  I"m using Papertrey Ink's Butterfly Blooms stamp set and mini stamp set.



I stamped the flowers from both sets onto my card front using various PTI ink colours.  I then layered my card front onto some yellow bazzill.  I then stamped my sentiment also from PTI  using black versafine ( I used my MISTI just to make sure I got a good impression, I ended up stamping it twice just to get it nice and dark).

I embossed both butterflies onto some white heavy vellum (I believe this is also from PTI) using white embossing powder.  I used the die to cut the large butterfly and hand cut the smaller one. I added sparkle to the wings using my wink of stella clear pen.

I tied some pink silk ribbon around the top layers before adhering to my card base.  I then added my butterflies, just adding a bit of glue to the centers of the butterflies so their wings are lifted.

The die I used for the base and the floral layer are both from the same die set - PTI - Noted: Scallop A2 Vertical die.

Thanks for your visit, enjoy your day!
