Butterfly Tree

It's Day 3 at Stamper's Dream for Impression Obsession week!

Today's card is made with a stamp from their newest release called Butterfly Tree . I stamped it on watercolor paper twice, then colored with Tombow markers. I cut out just the top of the tree and adhered it to the base. Three of the butterflies were cut out, glittered with Crystal Ultrafine Glitter and adhered to the tree using my Quickie Glue Pen . How did I EVER live without that thing?


The butterflies that are not on the tree were cut with a Martha Stewart Butterfly punch. I added some Mini Rhinestones to their body for a little dimension and bling.

The designer paper is all from the Girl Friday paper kit by Cosmo Cricket! I LOVE that paper!!! The cardstock is Blush Red Prismatics medium and Island Mist Prismatics light. The little ribbon around the tree is May Arts Pink Burlap string.

The Dream Team has some awesome cards in store for you. So be sure to check out what they have for you today...and the remainder of the week:

Wednesday - Laurie , Tosha , and Me

Thursday - Becca , Denise , Kimberly and Me

Friday - Kimberly , Tosha , and Me

Thanks so much for stopping by! I'll be back tomorrow with a new Impression Obsession card!
