  • Hello Friends,

    Thank you for stopping by today to check out my new project! I used a new stamp called "Swallowtail"  this stamp was in the Occasions Mini Catalog and is NOW available in the Big Catalog item#129210 for $13.95, OMG! I can't believe it took me this long to get it, I absolutely LOVE LOVE it!!!
                                                                 
    I hope you like this card and that lovely butterfly stamp!!  Don't forget to check out the Stampin' Up! catalog on my right sidebar.

    Challenges:

    I used the blender pens to color the butterfly in Calypso Coral. 
    I also added the tiny flower from the Itty Bitty Shape Punches item#118309.  The sentiment is from the Six-Sided Sampler Stamp Set item# 132724. I must say the butterfly is pretty big but I LOVE it and can't wait to use it some more. What do you guys think and do you like it??


    I stamped the butterfly with Momento Black Ink on the Whisper White CS and stamped it again on a separate piece of Whisper White CS so, I could color and cut it out and adhere it on top 
    of the first stamped image to give it a 3D dimension.  I also 
    used the spellbinders for the base and the Stampin' Up! 
    Top Note Die for the Calypso Coral layer.

    4. Fabulous card Norma. I love this stamp,but I'm totally intimidated by it. I saw it live and in person at a crop. The possibilities using this stamp are endless. I've seen it done so many ways. I just may have to get this one and give it a try.

      Have a great day!!

      TFS,
