The two stamps I used are called Butterfly 3 and Winter's Butterfly.
I wanted to challenge myself to make three cards using the same stamps. I already had three different embossing folders that I planned on using and I used three different ribbons.
I made all three of these cards in less than 30 minutes. I knew I wanted to go CAS, and I wanted to play with the positioning of the butterfly. I love how the butterfly snuggles perfectly next to the sentiment in the third card, almost like it is one stamps.
Even though I used the same stamps, you can see each card has it's own style. One card is white on white and simple gems embellish the card. I used a butterfly embossing folder, and it still worked great for a holiday card.
The Tim Holt'z paper certainly worked great to create a snow flake scene. I used a snowflake embossing folder and cut it into a one inch strip to make a nice border to showcase a bow.
Finally, I used a border snowflake embossing folder to frame this wonderful little butterfly and sentiment. I added glitter ribbon and matted it onto glitter card stock.
Beautiful set of cards Monica! My favorite is the one where you have positioned the buttetfly stamp to the right of the sentiment. ^__^ Even though the cards are CAS, they do exude the Vintage Chic charm you are famous for! *Big Panda Hugs*
