We are at letter B (the team had just recently finished the whole alphabet) and our challenge is
B is for Butterfly
I thought this adorable stamp from Whimsy Stamps, available here at Bunny Zoe Crafts would be perfect to use for this challenge, as I only had a chance to use it once before.
I colored the cuties with my Faber Castell Polychromos Pencils and blended with baby oil. Their faces were colored with copics.
The papers are from Prima Marketing.
I really love this sketch, it was inspired by a recent sketch from the sweet stop sketch challenge blog.
The design is actually really simple, as you can see, I embellished with only a couple of butterflies (MS punch), and some twine. Of course I had to add glitter, and since I fixed my sewing machine I did some sewing too.
The sentiment is from the set "A touch of elegant furniture" by Whimsy's Raindrop Echo designs, and it is also available here at Bunny Zoe Crafts for those of you in Europe.
I would like to combine my card with the following challenges:
- Color throwdown - color challenge
- Sweet Stampin - Anything Goes
- Hotshot Crafts - Butterflies
- Stampin' For The Weekend - Week 1, Stitching
- Creative Stamp Friends - Your Favorite Colors
- Pretty Little Ribbon - Die Cuts/Punches
- The Pink Elephant Monday Card Challenge - Punches/Dies
Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope I inspired you to get out your butterfly themed stamps or punches, or papers, and that you'll play along at ABC with us. Can't wait to see your creation!
Have a wonderful day and
Have a wonderful day and
happy stamping!
