Another butterfly card!

As I've probably said a thousand times, I LOVE butterfly stamps. This is one of the reasons I couldn't resist the Butterflies-fly set from Firecracker Designs by Pamela. I just love these fanciful butterflies. This card is fairly simple (I was following SCS sketch challenge SC190). I stamped the butterfly, colored it and cut it out with my circle nestibilities. I then stamped it again on scrap paper and colored and painted it (with Shimmerz paint) and then glued it over the first image for a 3-D look. The sentiment is stamped a little higher than I had wanted it but I didn't have any more of that particular paper so I decided to go with it. Here is a close-up to give you a better look at the 3-D wings.

Supplies used: Butterflies-fly from Firecracker Designs, SU CS and DP, Nestibilities, self adhesive rhinestones, Bic Mark*It permenant markers, Shimmerz paint.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope you all have a great start to your week.
