Make Your Own Butterfly



As I mentioned in yesterday's post, I was playing with the Elegant Eggplant, River Rock and Very Vanilla color combination. I just LOVE these colors together.

The Elegant Eggplant layer is stamped with the Floral BG stamp. I embossed (which is very hard to see in this photo) the sentiment using Versamark and gold embossing powder.

The focal image (from Never-Ending Joy) was colored with markers directly on the stamp. One of the images in this stamp set is an opened tulip. I think it kinda resembles a butterfly. So, I added a little body and some antennae. Voila.....an instant butterfly. Cool, huh?

I finished up the card with some ribbon and a beautiful cream colored half-back pearl from the Pretties Kit.

Gotta love an easy card that looks this elegant.......oh, how I love my job!!!!

I have stamp club tonight....so I need to finish prepping for that!!!

Until tomorrow......Happy Stamping everyone!!!
