Punch 604-

Punch 924

Thinking of You

Good morning, Steph here with a fun way to use your punched items.  I used the butterfly punch (604), but instead of using them as actual butterflies on my card, I decided to use the punched butterflies as stencils for the background of my card.  Placing the butterflies down, I lightly inked over them with Clearsnap's Chiffon Ink.  Once I was done, I lightly inked the spaces between the butterflies with Clearsnap's Peridot Ink.   The sentiment was stamped directly on the inked background.

Then I used punch #924 to create a border across the center of my card to add a little more interest.

Thanks for looking.
