Default Butterfly stamps

Good morning stampers -- I'm wanting to get a/some butterfly stamp(s) and am wondering which ones you think are the most versatile, easiest to cut out, best buy, etc. I'm okay with their clear or wood-mounted. Thanks.

Here is one of my favorite butterfly sets: http://www.creativeplaystamps.com/sw...rden-p-24.html

Artistic Outpost also has a beautiful butterfly in their Happiness set, I think.

GinaK has a gorgeous butterfly as well, it's more realistic than the first two I mentioned.

I think the butterflies in Shore Cliff Elements By Christine Adolph (C8482) by Stampington are gorgeous. I also like the seashell images and it might just be my first plunge into clear stamps (I am very much a fan of wood-mounted rubber stamps). You can see the set here (scroll down a tiny bit):

I also love the butterfly from Touch of Nature (a retired set by Stampin' Up!) - there is probably an index card for that set in the SU Gallery here on Splitcoast.

HTH and ...

Happy Crafting!

I'm stalking my postie 'cos I'm waiting for this clear Hero Arts butterfly set to be delivered. I like that there is a realistic looking one and a few more whimsical and also that there are some trails included in the set.

I have Butterfly Kisses from PaperTrey Ink - that's a fab set too!

I like Inkadinkadoo's Mindscapes acrylic stamps. It has a dragonfly, butterfly, and a ladybug, flower and hummingbird. But the stamps are made out of other images. So there are fairies for example in the butterfly.

If you do digital images, here are three butterfly dingbat fonts that are free for personal use. Can't beat the price. ;)

I like using SU's "Flight of the Butterfly", their "Priceless" set also has a butterfly that I use a lot.

Clear Dollar Stamps just came out with a really pretty butterfly set. It is great for embossing, coloring, or just stamping.
