We are getting hit with a lot of Rain and some flooding in our area so I made this card because I just need some butterlies in my life to make me smile. I designed this in my gypsy after seeing one on Pinterest that was made with dies. Since I have over 100 cartridges I knew that I something that would work. I use the Artiste for butterfly and the card. I put the solid shape in the center of the front of the card so it would cut it out. I would be happy to make a video if you would like to see a How-To on this. Just leave me a comment here or on my blog. It is hard to explain but very simple to do. It can easily be done in the CCR too. I used the Art Philosophy cart. for the branches and the floweres. The stamp set is from CTMH and you can order from me if you need any of these.  You love for you to stop by my blog and let me know what you think. Thanks

Thanks Ladies for all the nice comments.
To answer the questions about the colors:
The inks that I used are all Close To My Heart. They are Sky, Chrystal Blue, the card itself is sponged with Twilight. The inside of the Butterfly is sponged with Sunset.
If you would like to know anything else just let me know!

Thanks again for all the nice comments. It really means a lot to me when you have taken the time to comment.
You all are the best.
It ended up being a very rainy couple of days. We have 2 creeks on our property and they both over flowed. Lucky for us we are on the high side of both so it was just a matter of clearing out any debri that came down.
I do love hearing the rushing water at night it is very peaceful.
Like the saying goes "No rain no rainbow's"
