Helps when you have a background that you made up years ago hanging around just to be rediscovered. I found the background already adhered and stamped with a sentiment from a class a few years ago. At that time I think I also used a butterfly on it. I quickly cut out a circle with the Stitched Shapes to use with the <b>Butterfly Brilliance </b>stamp set and dies; coloured with my Blends and finished off with a few glitter enamel dots.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">I really like this butterfly set. There are five butterflies that are actually one stamp and can be cut out with a solid die that cuts out each butterfly. There are also 11 other dies in the set that you can use for layering and accenting. A very versatile set.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">You can visit my on-line store at:</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://cindymcgurk.stampinup.net">https://cindymcgurk.stampinup.net</a> </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Thanks for stopping by!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Cindy</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">+++++</span></div><p></p>Cindyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05184202330769864584noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5897530023723317449.post-30887740946803960992021-04-09T15:28:00.000-05:002021-04-09T15:28:10.354-05:00Flowers for Every Season - Stampin' Up! 2020<p><br /> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSd6abRWBtul9nTmE6__0kIecBT9U9itEYKUPbJtk__eVjOCnnxyxtGENqAcp8eppcrvIWYMaULrMrUdKCtoAgZPTN4yuv0NXXyxDUDC2GS2NLEMRqa_GD-oYiP8QP_jT4io-a5XuauA62/s2048/Flowers+for+Every+Seasonb+Quilt.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1654" height="438" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSd6abRWBtul9nTmE6__0kIecBT9U9itEYKUPbJtk__eVjOCnnxyxtGENqAcp8eppcrvIWYMaULrMrUdKCtoAgZPTN4yuv0NXXyxDUDC2GS2NLEMRqa_GD-oYiP8QP_jT4io-a5XuauA62/w353-h438/Flowers+for+Every+Seasonb+Quilt.JPG" width="353" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">Here's a quick, sweet quilt card for you today.
