Hello and welcome back.... Today I am sharing a video from Stampin'Up! featuring the gorgeous stamp set Butterfly Basics and the matching Butterfly Thinlits.
Aren'tthey gorgeous.....
The Butterfly Thinlits used on their own, with some Gorgeous Grunge in the background make a gorgeous card. The butterfly has been cut out and sponged with Night of Navy, Pacific Point and Lost Lagoon.
Here the butterfly has been cut out of Night of Navy card and the background has been created with the Butterfly Basics Stamp Set.
A slight variation on the previous card, and the great thing is if you buy the Butterfly Thinlits together with the Butterfly Basics Stamp Set you save 15% off the regular price. Awesome saving for such a great set.
Today's card uses two of my favourite stamp sets.. An Open Heart and Awesomely Artistic they have such beautiful images and are so versatile....
My base card is Soft Suede with a Cherry Cobbler mat. Then I have used Whisper White and stamped the flower image from Awesomely Artistic on the card in Basic Black. Then using a blender pen I started off with Real Red and coloured in all the flowers then went back over and did highlights in Cherry Cobbler. The leaves I started with Old Olive and then did highlights in Mossy Meadow.
I used the splodges stamp and Sahara Sand ink to create the background and a blender pen to create the ground the bird is standing on.
I used a Gold marker to do the center of the flowers, Stampin'Up! no longer sell the Gold marker but a Gold Sharpie works just as well.
The sentiment is from the Butterfly Basics Stamp Set and is stamped in Basic Black, the bird is placed so that it looks like it is looking at the sentiment.
I think I may be obsessed with this bird image its just so beautiful.....
