I am having so much fun making all kinds of butterflies! The Watercolor Wings Stamp Set is so amazing. It is a 3-Step Stamping Set so you can create amazing colors and a true masterpiece!!! I LOVE IT!!! All of these samples I’m showing today use all Whisper White cardstock – base, front piece and scraps for the butterfly. I embossed the front of the card base above with the Zig Zag Texture Embossing Folder. I stamped the butterfly in Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, and Tangelo Twist! I stamped the greeting from the Watercolor Wings Stamp Set in Tangelo Twist and I brushed the edges with Crushed Curry and a Sponge Dauber!!! I added the butterfly and the greeting piece to the base with Stampin’ Dimensionals!!! For the antenna, I stamped that in Basic Black onto the greeting piece and then placed the butterfly over it! Also, no fussy cutting necessary as there is a great Framelit Set to match – Bold Butterfly (Bundle & Save)!!!
I love these shades of purple!!! I used Wisteria Wonder, Perfect Plum, and Elegant Eggplant for this butterfly!! For the dots behind the butterfly, I used the image from the Watercolor Wings Stamp Set and stamped halfway from the left and halfway from the right. This way the meeting of the two images is hidden behind the butterfly. I used the Lovely Lace Embossing Folder for the card front and the greeting is from the Thoughts & Prayers Stamp Set. Butterflies are the perfect image for any occasion – sympathy, baby, wedding, anniversary, thinking of you, birthday and everything in between!
There is something about that Brick Embossed background that makes me LOVE this card. That and how the greeting fits so perfectly in that brick. Ahhh I just love it!!! The colors used on this butterfly are Pool Party, Lost Lagoon, and Island Indigo! The greeting is from the Watercolor Wings Stamp Set as well!
Here are three more cards in a similar pattern as the ones above. The far left one uses Mint Macaron, Cucumber Crush, and Basic Gray and the far right one uses Soft Sky, Marina Mist and Night of Navy. The middle one is the same as the first card up top. I used the Happy Together greeting from A Dozen Thoughts Stamps Set. Can you tell I had tons of fun making all kinds of cards with this set???
Here is a color chart of the colors I found to be super fabulous!!!!
