Connie-Butterfly Birthday!

Here is one view of this gorgeous 

 Sweet Pea Stamps

from plate #2.

I think this plate has absolutely 

THE most classically beautiful 

images!!

I chose to stamp on cocoa cardstock with versamark

ink and emboss with powder...no color added!

I cut some lovely papers to match from

Colorbok's "English Meadow" set and added

a few diecuts by 

memorybox

"Catalina Border"

The end result (in my opinion) is

a lovely piece with little time!

I made a second card using the same image below:

For this one I embossed in gold and colored

with Copics.  I tucked the main image under

a cut of the pretty background paper

(from DCWV "Mariposa") in order

to make it useful for more than

a birthday.

Added a flower from my stash and 

a pretty tiny diecut butterfly by

Cheery Lynn

"Exotic Butterfly Small"

popped up a bit.

Please check out the pretty stamps

from the earlier offerings over at
