Hello everyone! Welcome to Day 2 of the Simon Says Stamp Blossoms and Butterflies release Blog Hop! You can check Day one here. Also, make sure you read until the end if you want to know how to participate in a giveaway!
¡Hola a todos! Bienvenidos al segundo día del blog hop celebrando la colección de Simon Says Stamp "Blossoms and Butterflies". Podéis ver el día uno aquí. Además, os recomiendo leer hasta el final para conocer todos los detalles y cómo participar en un sorteo.
OUTLINE BUTTERFLIES
I love butterflies! Did I say that already? :) So I combined the "Outline Butterflies Background" stamp with the "Comfort and Prayers" stamp set to make my card
¡Me encantan las mariposas! ¿Lo he dicho ya alguna vez? :) Así que he combinado el sello para fondo "Outline Butterflies" con el set "Comfort and Prayers" para hacer mi tarjeta.
I colored the butterfly with watercolor pencils, but I used them dry instead of with water. I filmed a video where you can watch how I made this card and also my struggles with it (which are many ;)). You can also watch at my Youtube channel here.
He coloreado la mariposa con lápices acuarelables, pero los he usado secos en vez de con agua. Aquí debajo tenéis un vídeo donde se ve cómo he hecho esta tarjeta y los problemas que he tenido con ella (que son muchos;)). También podéis ver el vídeo en mi canal de Youtube.

ReplyDeleteBackground stamps are great, but their cost makes it tough to afford them. That is why it is nice to get as many ideas on ways to use them as possible. I love what you did with the Outline Butterfly Background stamp in your first card. Keeping it simple allowed the one butterfly you colored to really stand out! Love that idea!!! The other card you shared from a previous post is simply beautiful, by the way!!
