Thankful For Butterflies

Have you ever had an idea, for a card, that you wanted to try? I have always wanted to make a frame of flowers all around a card, but I had to find the right stamp images for this. So I was looking through my stamp stash, and saw my Flourishes "Clematis and Butterflies" set, and it was like "that's the set!" :)


I used Flourishes "Clematis and Butterflies" stamp set colored in with Tombows. I cut the flowers and butterflies out and popped them up on popdots. The paper is from Melissa Frances, cut down to a 7x7 size.


I love Monarch butterflies, and although they are hard to spot in my card, I rather like them being hidden and kinda tucked into tiny spots. I kept the light low so you can see the edges of the card better, but in real light it's pretty. I love how it turned out and I might give it a try again with a different set :) I love how versatile Flourishes Stamps are!
