Velum Butterfly


Velum Butterfly

This card topper came from another really beautiful card over on Splitcoast Stampers. I cut out the butterflies using a Cuttlebug die. I used 2 pieces of paper: velum (ripped from a Hallmark card) and Black and White Script (Hobby Lobby). I stamped the flowers (Inkadinkado: Garden Delight) and the sentiment (Hero Arts: Thinking of You) using Martha Stewart Snowflake ink onto mulberry Bazzill cardstock. It's ready to be put on a card blank when the need arises.

I like the simplicity of the color scheme. The muted flowers and sentiment are very peaceful, and the butterfly seems to be resting for just a moment before flying away....kind of like it stopped by for a visit, bringing beauty along.

Craft happy!
