I love monarch butterflies and love making them whenever I can and the two sets I used today are perfect to use.  I first stamped Butterfly Essence to create my background and then stamped the individual butterfly from Hello Butterflies on scrap white card stock.  After coloring using prismacolor markers, I cut it out and popped up over the background before stamping the saying, layering and popping up using dimensionals.



Enjoy the Hop. Come back each day. We hope to inspire you to start your own Bugs and Butterflies projects.  Get to work on the tutorials, show us what you made by May 13th and 
check back on May 14, 2016 to see if you are a winner.

Today's card was made using a couple of my favorite sets: Pansy Riot and the Swallowtail mini.  After stamping the pansy background, I then stamped the butterfly on scrap white paper before coloring using prismacolor markers and cutting out to pop up over a silk prima flower.  To finish things off, I added a metal saying and some clear dew drops.

Today I am sharing a card using my favorite technique - scenic stamping by combining a couple of different sets: Dragonflies and Marsh Birds.  After stamping all of the images I had decided to use in memento black and coloring using prismacolor watercolor pencils, I stippled some Tim Holtz broken china distress ink along the bottom for the marsh water.  Once that was done, I then stippled some tumbled glass along the sides and top for the sky before layering the colored panel and adding it to a green card.

Today I am sharing a card made using Lots of Words.  After stamping my main image onto white card stock and coloring with prismacolor markers, I stamped the butterfly twice onto scrap white card stock, colored, then cut out to double layer for extra dimension.  I then added baby brads, bee stickers, and pink bling to finish it off.
