Build a Butterfly

 This is a card that I made while stamping with good friends

Mary and Jo.  The butterflies come from the Build A Butterfly

dies.  I'm fond of calling them "bulky butterflies".  I used a 

layer of retired DSP, with the butterfly layer cut out with the

retired Stitched So Sweetly dies.  I liked the 90º positioning

of the background layers.

All the Good Things

 Every once in a while I have to bring back on old set.

This is All the Good Things, and also includes some

lovely Koi fish, which remind me of gardens I have seen.

I love the option to color components of these images

 with markers.

Heron Habitat Bundle

 I enjoy the Heron Habitat bundle because the set

has so many images and dies that are perfect together. 

Even the sentiments have beautiful shapes that go so well

with the animal and grassy components.  The other feature

is that you can use them together, or individually, as

your creative juices dictate!  I like to add some texture

to the background, to pull it all together.
