Happy Spring!

 How about a little bit of spring? 

I made this springy background on a mixed media paper using the Darkroom Door large stencil with fun circles. 

I sponged on all these beautiful distress oxide colors using a mix of spring hues.  Then I came back and added some checkerboard stamping in the same colors. 

Then I brought out the butterfly stamps and made a collection of butterflies to coordinate.

To finish them off some flowers and butterfly sentiments.  I created an ATC, tag, and card.  I also have 2 more ATC backgrounds and another card base.  These colors make me happy while we patiently wait for some of our spring flowers to bloom in the  yard. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Spread your Wings

 It is Butterfly time!  I am back to share a post with the new Darkroom Door Rubber Stamp Set called Spread Your Wings!  I love the butterfly stamps and was happy to play around with these! 

This set has 3 of the same butterfly in varying sizes.  I love the varying sizes as I could stamp and color them all the same and create a dimensional butterfly.

I took the die cuts and sprayed them with the same inky spray I used to color the butterflies.  I layered them behind the butterfly and placed it on the chicken wire background.  The set comes with a variety of wing inspired sentiments. 

I used the Warm Wishes flowers with the butterflies and the same background to create another pretty summery cards!

For the final card I used a vellum overlay to add a lovely sentiment with a sweet butterfly with a safety pin body. 

Hope you enjoyed my beautiful butterflies!
