My first card is pretty simple - just inking up the butterflies in Melissa's color combo and then reattaching them by their centers and adding the sentiment. I did use Wink of Stella on all the butterflies, so IRL this simple card really shimmers! My 2nd card I used watercolor cs and "smooshed" all the colors except the Spring Moss, and then die cut with the cover plate. After reattaching the butterflies in the center again, I added another layer of DSP vellum butterflies (hard to see in the photos, but the vellum had little white swirls on it) over the first ones. My sentiment I embossed on a strip of Spring Moss cs and then added a couple black enamel dots. I used a card base of Autumn Rose that you can see peeking through behind the butterflies for a bit more intense color.

These are both gorgeous, Marcia. I waffled for so long on that cover plate and those stamps, and you are making me so very sorry that I did not get them.
