Butterfly Wing Background

Hello Lisa Horton Crafts Friends!!

Happy Saturday!

Kendra here from Luv 2 Scrap n' Make Cards to share a pretty card with you!!

My card today features the lovely Wings and Things stamp set!  I absolutely LOVE this set!  The detail on the butterfly wings is so beautiful!

Instead of creating a butterfly with the set, I decided to use one of the wings to create a fun background:

I love how it turned out!  The stamped wings look so pretty on Lisa's paper!! I used a piece of paper from the Capri Paper Pad!!  Such beautiful paper!!

Here is a look at my stamping process:

 I slightly lined up the 'wing' so that it would touch the previously stamped wing.  I like how the design then looks like it is all connected!

It creates such a fun background, in my opinion!!

As I am writing this post I'm thinking, I absolutely love stamping on Lisa's beautiful paper, but image stamping these wings on a piece of white paper and then coloring the wings in with bright colors to create a fun bright and colorful background! 

A close-up:

  I used the Just Saying - Be Happy stamp set for my sentiment.  I love the font used on these sentiments!!

The added little die cut butterfly is from the the Butterfly Flourish Die Set!

Another fun use for the wing stamps!

Have a lovely day!  

Self-Propelled Flowers

Hello Sweet Crafty Friends!

Kendra here today to share a card with you!

I am just so beyond excited to share this card....I love bright colors!!  Yellow is my absolute favorite!  But I also love butterflies!!  As well as flowers! This all of me put into a card:

I am so excited with how it turned out!!

I used the lovely Nested Flags Dies to create my card base along with a few of the layers:

All of Lisa's new butterfly stamps are absolutely amazing!!  The detail is beyond gorgeous!!  They remind me of images in adult coloring books and I love sitting down once in awhile and coloring in them!  This butterfly is the first one that caught my attention!!  It is from the Majestic Butterflies stamp set!!  The 'Butterflies are self-propelled flowers - R. H. Heinlein' sentiment also really caught my attention!  The sentiment is part of the Wings and Things stamp set!

I used yellow ink to ink the lovely Medieval Stencil behind my butterfly and banner.  The banner is part of the Nested Banners die set!

In the picture below you can also see that I stamped the Bubblewrap stamp in the bottom right corner with Versafine Ink and embossed with a pearl embossing powder!  I just really like the added touch!!

This picture also gives you a closer look at my gorgeous butterfly!!  I stamped this butterfly from the Majestic Butterflies stamp set three times!  so that I could fussy cut certain sections out to add dimension and added interest! 

Have a lovely day!
