This is my second post today so I'll keep it brief! I've made a card using the massive sheena butterfly stamps - not from the last release but the one before! My she is a busy lady!!! Lol! I was lucky enough to win the crafters companion prize for the march challenge and these stamps are one of the things I bought with the voucher.
I started by using distress inks on some card then stamping the butterfly and fussy cutting it. Then I used dylusions london blue spray on a 7x7 inch card and sprayed lightly. Next I applied some cosmic shimmer mist spray - using a pipette to add it in drops to the card - my nozzle is always blocked with these sprays but the shimmer makes them worth having.
Next I added the verse to the card. I love this verse - its so gentle. Then it was time for the flowers and the butterfly to which I had also added some mica spray.
The flowers were from Sweet Lilac - you may have seen their leaflets recently - they're well worth a look! You can find them here.
I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

Thats all for today - back tomorrow with more for your inspiration - plus the winner of my last commenters candy.
