Summer Butterflies at stamping sensations

Our challenge over at

STAMPING SENSATIONS

this month has the theme

FOR A LADY.

We are sponsored by

so be sure and join us for the chance to win a

£25 Shopping Voucher with them!

I saw a card on Pinterest using this idea but with flowers

so I thought I would try it with my butterflies.

I started by inking up the background using

polished pink, balmy blue, granny apple green,

pale papaya and fresh freesia inks.

I then stamped using Butterfly Brilliance in

basic grey ink and then cut it out using the matching die.

Keeping it as one piece I flipped it over

and using double sided tape I held parts together

that I didn't want to fall apart.

When I turned it back over, I curled up

some of the wings and added a tiny 3d foam square.

It was then splashed with some gesso and when dry

I added it to my polished pink card base.

To finished I added some sequins

to the bodies of the butterflies.

The sentiment was stamped and punched

using Lovely Labels pick a punch and

Lovely You stamp set in polished pink ink.

Pretty Gift Box Tutorial

My tutorial today shows how I made these pretty little boxes
for a gift for my Mother-in-law.
The ruffle bar is another favourite of hers and
of course I had to make two boxes.
One for her and one for her friend.
