Good afternoon my friends! It is still very wintery up here in the north, and I am ready for some spring, how about you? With Spring in mind, I have created not one, but TWO cards using the Just Butterflies digital stamp set!
I took the Just Butterflies Digital Stamp Set and copied and pasted, resized and changed positions until I was happy with the placement of my butterflies. I use the Silhouette Studio software for this but you can also use Word or another cutting machine software like Cricut Design Space.
For the teal colored butterflies I used different blends from the same color family (BG) and mottled the background with cool greys and blending solution. For the Orange butterflies, I used YR and E color blends and mottled the background with BG’s and blending solution. Using the same techniques, I get two very different cards! Do you like to try different color blends? Sometimes I use blends from one artist such as Sweet Sentiment and other times I use my favorites from Vanilla Arts. It all depends what I am working on and what kind of mood I am in lol.
Have you seen this project by Betsy? She prints her butterflies out on patterned cardstock! I have not tried that yet, but I definitely need to give it a go! And I love the color that Guest Designer Donna adds to her butterflies, so bright and cheery!
That’s all for me today, I will see you again very soon with more fun projects from Joy Clair Designs!
