Welcome to my blog on the first day of February! Today I’m sharing a “quick & easy” butterfly card.
I chose Balmy Blue for the card base, with Lemon Lime Twist for the right side of the sketch. To add some detail to the Lemon Lime Twist cardstock, I used a Wonderful Floral die to make the arbor and leaves.
The left side is a pretty, floral print from the Botanical Butterfly DSP in the same green tones.
The butterfly is also from the Botanical Butterfly DSP, and I was happy to find a perfect one in blue and green. Well, almost perfect. It wasn’t the size of the punch, so I had to use my Paper Snips to fussy cut it.
I stamped the butterfly’s antennae before securing it to its place with Tear& Tape. I wanted to make sure it didn’t fly away!
The sentiment is from the Butterfly Gala stamp set. I stamped “Hello Beautiful” in Black ink on a piece of Tranquil Textures DSP that was cut with a Wonderful Floral die.
Thanks for stopping by today! Treat yourself to some crafting supplies at my online store. I wish you a wonderful February!
