Hello and welcome to the Blog Hop! The theme for this hop is "Anything Goes".
Sooo since I have some new goodies from the Occasions Catalog that was just released. What better time to use them right? . I love anything to do with nature, if it's outdoorsy, I'm all over it :) Butterfly Gala Stamp Set is a beautiful set and comes in a bundle with a punch! How awesome is that? I love easy and punches are just that. Quick and easy. Stamp your image, punch it out. That's it.
I decided to do a little water coloring for my butterflies , well the top half anyway lol... then stamp the image on it so that I could have a beautiful butterfly. Or in my case butterflies :) Then I just punched the image out with my punch.
I decided to make the middle circle and then the idea to make the butterflies appear as if they were going through that and getting a wash of color as they did and emerge with beautiful color.
I just sponged some colors ( gorgeous grape, melon mambo and coastal cabana) onto a clear sheet spritzed it with water and added my paper.
I then stamped my image onto the colors and punched them out.
and there you go a beautiful stamp set made into a super easy beautiful card
