Are you a fan of butterfly? To be honest, I'm not. But I really wanted to play with Butterfly Pair Stamp & Cut as it includes very interesting dies in the set.

I started by stamping the butterfly images from Butterfly Pair Stamp & Cut and Mason Jar Bugs  to create my own background.

Here are the Bold Ink pads I used for my colored stamping: TangerineMulled WineStrawberryDandelion and Summer Sky.

Then I colored the images with Copic markers and added some shimmer on the wings using Wink of Stella. It's a shame you can't see the wings shimmering with glitters. They are beautiful in real life.

After die cutting two butterflies using dies from Butterfly Pair Stamp & Cut, the sentiment was heat embossed on a piece of yellow cardstock from Sunshine Mix Layering Papers using white embossing powder.

I love that the dies cut wings only. It created some beautiful dimension and shadows under the wings. To finish off my card, I added some clear sequins.
