Beautiful Butterflies

One of the purchases I made when I went crafty shopping after the holidays was the beautiful Inkadinkadoo stamp, Mindscapes. I chose it because I wanted a large butterfly stamp and the lady on the cash desk pointed out that the images were all made up of fairies, birds and all sorts of other creatures which I hadn't noticed. It is now my new favourite stamp set!!!

I had a play with the butterfly and this is what I came up with.


The first card was stamped with various shades of blue on a Nestability and then clear embossed and edged with one of the shades of blue.

The background was the script cuttlebug folder which has been glimmer misted with denim blue and suede and then edged with denim blue distress ink.


I stamped a strip down the card with the flower stamp from the same set and then added the swirls around the outside.


The second one was gold embossed and matted with some gold mirricard. The background was from one of the Elusive Images CDs I had printed out awhile ago so I can't tell you which one it was. I think this would make quite a good Christmas card but haven't added a message because I might change my mind and use it for something else.

Thank you for stopping by, I hope the sun has shined for you today as it has for us at last.
