More Butterfly Love

So a little while ago, well just over a week ago maybe, I shared a few of my favourite butterfly cards made with the Swallowtail Stamp.  It was Butterfly Love.  Well now I can share some more of my cards made with this stamp!

These cards were made during a class showcasing new techniques and for me, a very different but striking colour combination.  Elegant Eggplant and Crushed Curry.  Who knew!

The first card uses the technique of colouring in with Blender Pens.  The colours featured for the butterfly include Elegant Eggplant, Crushed Curry & Tangerine Tango.  Quite striking don't you think!

The card is deliberately layered so that the butterfly is bigger than the card.  Quite an illusion really as the card finishes up to be suitable for a regular envelope!

This second card, features clear embossing of the card and sponging with Elegant Eggplant card.  Not quite the way the original design was supposed to be, but a bit of adaption fixed that!  Don't you love the DSP in the background?  The Eastern Elegance DSP is stunning.

And I have to say, I really like this Chevron ribbon too!  So if you would like to make these cards, there is a coordinating box too as well as cards made similar to the ones shown in my Butterfly Love posts, please contact me.  Fabulous cards with great techniques!

Inks: Basic Black, Elegant Eggplant, Crushed Curry & Tangerine Tango
Papers: Crushed Curry, Elegant Eggplant, Whisper White CS & Eastern Elegance DSP
