Beautiful Butterflies & Impressions Abloom

Is there such a thing as using TOO many die sets on one card??? Two … three … FOUR???

Yeah, yeah, yeah … I am one of THOSE people! I used FOUR sets of dies on this card (and I’m still telling myself somewhere in the back of my brain that making your own cards is cheaper than buying them … even though my husband doesn’t believe that any more!)!

This is actually the second version of this card that I made. I used Basic White as the base of this card originally and did not really like how it looked. So, of course, I had to tear it all apart and try it again!

On this second try I used Pool Party as the base. I used both my White Craft Ink reinker and a white gel pen to make a pattern of “dots” on it.

I used an aqua brush and some ink to add some color to the postage squares, as well as flicking ink on them (which you know is my new favorite thing!).

I also used the white gel pen to add dots to the centers on some of the flowers as well.

Lots of 2024-2026 In Colors on this one as well! Where has Shy Shamrock been??? I’ve had it and it has kind of gotten forgotten! Not any more!!
