Hi! I’m stopping in with a quick post on this hot hot hot 4th of July day in Germany!
I have 4 cards to share with you in the post. I used my new giant Swallowtail butterfly stamp from SU!! I have been wanting this stamp since I first saw it. I like it just as much as I thought I would.
I made a smooshed water-color bg paper first. Then for each of these cards I stamped with VersaMark onto the purple bg and then heat embossed in black,
silver
I’m going to play the white version card over at HLS’s July CAS: Stamping, Same but Different’s Challenge #10 and Virginia’s View Challenge #16: Stamping. I’m going to play the turquoise version at WAW’s #190.
I’ve got another post with more of the beauties, you can check it out here. Thanks for stopping by!
