Big Butterflies
Big Butterflies
I have another couple of cards using my (fairly) new Big Butterfly stamp by Stampendous to share today. I couldnt decide whether I wanted to use a white or a kraft card base...so I made one of each! I started by stamping a music background stamp (by Hero Arts/BasicGrey) in Old Paper (on the white) and Pumice Stone (on the kraft) Distress Inks. I then stamped the butterfly over the top, using Versamark Ink, before heat embossing them using embossing glitters from WOW...I used Vintage Amethyst on the white, and Vintage Peacock on the kraft. Finally, I added a sentiment using a stamp from the Fabulous Birthday set by Hero Arts.
Here are a couple of close-ups:
Challenges for these cards:

- As You Like It - Favourite Way to Add a Sentiment (I like to stamp mine directly on the card base...this has definitely become less stressful since I got my Tim Holtz stamp platform!)
