All a Flutter - Summer Mini


This is another single stamp from the summer mini and I just love it for it's versatility. Butterflies are so popular right now...in clothing, on accessories, in home decor & of course, in the crafting world. And it's no wonder...they are natural, somewhat feminine, come in all kinds of colors and can be beautiful, fragile or whimsical.

On this card, I chose to use the stamp to create a background, by inking it with Versamark watermarking ink and then stamping it randomly. I also stamped it once with Early Espresso craft ink and then topped it with some clear embossing powder & heated it up to get a textured butterfly that I could then ink up with sponge daubers and some classic ink (So Saffron and Pumpkin Pie).
