Watercolor Wings - Just for You

Yes the retirement list is out, and one of the stamps on the list is one on my favourites - "Water Color Wings" on Pg. 134 as well as the accompanying "Bold Butterfly Framelits" on Pg. 213.  I do so hate to see them go, so today I am making a card with this favourite of mine


The Stamparatus makes triple stamping so much easier, so of course I used this new tool to stamp the butterfly.  I stamped it in now time!

Colors for the butterfly, in the order stamped:  Powder Pink, Berry Burst, Tranquil Tide
Sentiment stamped in Tranquil Tide.

The butterfly was die cut with the retiring Bold Butterfly Framelit, and adhered by the body of the butterfly only, to a delicate doillie which  was placed on top of a Lots of Labels framelit which I embossed with the Striped Embossing Folder.

Some glitter enamel dots were added to the bottom and top butterfly wings.

The base card is Berry Burst, layered with Whisper White and then Fresh Florals Specialty DSP (Berry Burst).  Some 1/4" Metallic Edge Berry Burst was added to the left side of the card , wrapping it around the Whisper white and DSP layers.  A bow was added at the top.

Supplies Used:
Stamp:  Water Color Wings
Inks:  Powder Pink, Berry Burst, Tranquil Tide
Papers:  Berry Burst, Whisper White, Fresh Florals DSP
Accessories:  Bold Butterfly Framelits, Labels Framelit, Stripes Embossing Folder, Glitter Enamel Dots, Stamparatus, Doillie
