Heartfelt Creations Inspiration

Happy Wednesday!

It's time for a little inspiration with Heartfelt Creations!


(You can click on the photo for a closer look)


This week I have the second butterfly image from the Butterfly Melody Set.  I used the same color combination of yellow and turquoise as I did before.  I love this combination together, it's so vibrant and cheerful!  I stamped the image twice, partially colored the base and fully colored and fussy cut the second.  Next time, I would do this only to the butterfly, I think it would be prettier that way!  You can see the full instruction for this at the bottom of my post.

I'm submitting this to the Word Art Wednesday Challenge #70 - Anything Goes.

Thank you for stopping by!

Blessings!

Kathy

  4. Beautiful card Kathy. I love to fussy cut and raise things up with the 3D effect too. I think it is so much better than masking. Blessings

  15. Kathy, I love your many beautiful cards. They are truly inspiring. I have a question about a card you created back in Aug, 2012 called "Special Pup" Do you know if that stamp is still available?
    Thanks for sharing your creative talents with all of us!

    1. Thank you so much, Terri! Unfortunately, the Special Puppy Stamp was retired in December 2012. It is such a cute puppy too! Blessings! Kathy
