Friends Are Like Flowers

If you need some inspiration, look at the samples in the Stampin' Up catalogs. I found this card on page 40 of the Mini Catalog and decided to recreate it. I always try to create something beautiful for the inside of my cards as well. Have fun creating and have a blessed day.

Butterflies & Flowering Bloom Card

 

I haven't used the Flowering Blooms stamp set in a while so I thought I would pair it with the Butterfly Bijou DSP. I love the way this card went together and it was very easy to create. I demonstrate in my video how to color the flower to get the shading. This DSP is so beautiful and fun to play with. I hope you like this card as much as I do. Have a blessed day and have fun crafting.

Butterfly Brilliance In a Jar

As I was looking at this particular piece of Butterfly Bijou DSP, It made me think of catching butterflies with a net and putting them in a jar. I left the lid off the jar because I wanted the butterflies to be able to get out. I had the Mason Jar Shaker Domes and thought they would look really cute on the card with a butterflies in them. These cards will have to be hand delivered because they will cost more to mail. Have fun stamping and have a blessed day!

Butterfly Brilliance Cards

I created these really simple cards using the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle and the Butterfly Bijou 6x6 designer series paper. I wasn't sure what I was going to make with them until I started cutting and pasting. I like the fact that there are so many different colors in the DSP to choose from and they all coordinate so well together. I hope you have as much fun as I did when you start creating with yours.

Following is the list of products and sizes I used to create the Misty Moonlight version:
