I have memories of catching butterflies in the summer when I was a young girl. They are all so beautiful, aren't they? For this card, I stamped the image of the butterfly onto the light yellow card stock using black ink and clear embossing before coloring with Copic markers and cutting out. I then cut the Spellbinders butterfly and layered my stamped one on top of it, using foam squares to lift the wings a bit. I stamped the sentiment using Pumpkin Pie ink. The edges are embossed with a Cuttlebug Organic Flourish folder. Three jewels were added for a little summer bling. The butterfly image and sentiment are part of a new set being released next week by MFP.
