Posy Butterflies

Today’s card starts my series featuring the new 2019-2021 In Colors. I love them as a set, but wanted to highlight each color on its own. First up is Purple Posy. This light purple pairs nicely with Highland Heather and Gorgeous Grape. For my card, I pulled a piece of retired DSP featuring Highland Heather and a piece of new In Color DSP as a background. I then added a nice pearlized doily and stamped and punched butterflies.

Galvanized Butterflies

Today’s card was inspired by all the Holiday catalog cards that featured a beautiful metallic embossed background piece. I had to recreate but with some fun spring elements! I love how the Quilt Top embossing folder raised this card up to the next level. Beyond the embossed piece, I wanted to feature my new favorite color: Highland Heather. It screams spring to me. Love it!

FMS372: Balmy Butterflies

Today’s card was created using Freshly Made Sketches #372. I just love the simplicity of the design. So many directions I could have gone!

For my card, I started with a strip of Bermuda Bay Glimmer Paper and worked from there. I coordinated that strip with a piece of the Gingham Gala DSP in Balmy Blue and cute out some cute butterflies from the Botanical Butterfly DSP pack (SAB item!). I finished off my card with a cute sentiment and some fun sequins. Love this card!

Butterfly Trio

Today’s card is a CASE from the Stampin’ Success magazine for demos. I saw this cute butterfly trio card and knew I had to recreate it! I did change out the background paper, adding my piece of Grapefruit Grove Patterned Paper and modified the dimensions a bit. But the basics of the card is the same!
