Butterfly Basics Birthday Cards

Butterfly Basic Stamp set is my all time favorite. You can use one or two of the stamps in the set or you can use all of them.  I have made multiple cards with this set.  Only 3 colors of ink was used on this card.  I used the stamp off method to make the colors lighter for background effect. On the background Whisper White card stock the stamp that looks a little like chicken wire was used with Sahara Sand ink and stamped off. This was done on the entire piece of white.  Then the ferns were stamped with Old Olive ink..you stamp the dark one then keep stamping off to get the lighter ones. The flower and butter fly were stamped with Elegant Eggplant ink using the same method.  The date stamp you can barely see behind the butterfly wing is stamped off and then stamped.  You can't see them real well, but I used rhinestones on the center of butterfly and in center of each little flower.  For the inside and I forgot to take a picture before sealing envelope is the saying from Remembering your Birthday stamp set. Truly easy card...it took about 20 minuted to do 2.
