Floating Butterflies

This card was fun — when was the last time you stamped on Vellum?
Butterfly TagThe base of the card is Melon Mambo.
I added a 4" x 4" piece of English Garden designer paper.
I laid a 4" x 4" piece of Vellum Cardstock over the designer paper and
stamped three butterflies using the Garden in Bloom stamp set.
I love the three step stamping of the Garden in Bloom stamp set.
On the Whisper White cardstock I stamped the flower outline with Memento ink.
Next was the flower petals using Melon Mambo ink stamped off.
Then I used the smaller flower petals stamp with full strength Melon Mambo ink.
I wrapped Silver Three around the banner piece and tied a not.

Have you fallen in the love with this stamp set yet?
I have one more sample for you tomorrow.

Don't forget you can get a FREE tutorial for another great way to use this stamp set.

Garden in Bloom Flowers

Wouldn't you love to receive this pretty Thank You note.
It is so bright and cheery.
Flower Squares
The card base is Wild Wasabi.
The designer paper is Calypso Coral from Subtles Designer Paper Stack.
We stamped Sending Many Thanks from the Petite Pairs stamp set
with Memento ink.  Next we stamped the flowers on three 1 7/8" squares of
Whisper White cardstock — stamp one in the upper left corner, one in the lower right corner and the last one in the lower left corner — this way when you adhere to the card front you won't be covering up much of each flower.
I tied a bow using the Wild Wasabi 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon and adhered to the cardf front with a glue dot.  Hmmm…who to send this card to.

Butterfly Trio

Last night was my Stamp of the Month Class.
This month we featured the Garden in Bloom Stamp Set.
I saw a card similar on Pinterest and made a few little tweaks.
ButterfliesThe card base is Watermelon Wonder.
(I have finally convinced by friend Gail that this is a great color).
The next layer is Cajun Craze.
The Whisper White layer was scored using the Simply Scored Tool at
1/4" on all four sides.
Next I stamped THANKFUL from Another Thank You stamp set using
Watermelon Wonder.
The butterfly outlines were stamped with Soft Suede ink.
The insides of the butterflies were stamped with Watermelon Wonder,
Lost Lagoon and Crushed Curry ink.  Each butterfly was inked, stamped off,
and then stamped.  The smaller inside wings were stamped with the same color
full strength.  I added White Perfect Accents between the butterflies.
The ladies loved this card.

Order this stamp set and a few other goodies and not only can you make
this card but I'll email you a tutorial for four more cards FREE.
