Here is the card I made using this fantastic and versatile sketch.
This is a beautiful stamp from Our Daily Bread and it's called Butterfly Branch and fortunately, it also has a companion die that has this pattern cut into a piece of transparent plastic so you can align the die on top of your stamped image perfectly, I don't think I could have paper snipped this image, no matter how careful I would have been.
I stamped the butterflies on Canson water color paper and colored with my SU markers, I wont list the colors since you can pretty much use any color you want for this image.
The embossing folder I used is from Cuttlebug and I picked it because the swirls look to me like the way butterflies fly.
This is the sketch that inspired this card.
Thank you for visiting, if you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask.
Till next time, happy stamping.
Hugs from Maria.

Ohhh Maria that card is so so beautiful. I love butterflies and watercolour. Perfection.
Maria is this a new stamp for you? I know you've been searching for a butterfly image and this one couldn't be more stunning! What a gorgous cluster of colorful butterflies just made for you to sit and color! It couldn't be more lovely!
Thank you Aileen, this stamp is really beautiful and easy to color.
Hi Patti: No, I've had this stamp for a long time now but I had kind of forgotten it because it was stored with the die and the envelope was at the bottom of this box, I was so happy when I found it so I used it immediately.
Thank you, my friend.
Beautiful ! You sound like me (finding stamps that have been put away ) I think we need to challenge ourselves to bring some of those beauties out into the light again.
This is really pretty ! The butterflies look so soft and colorful and the swirl is perfect for framing them . Love this card !
Thanks my friend. Since I've been participating in this challenges, all of this older sets are seeing the light again!
What a delight! The watercoloring is perfection and I love how it's framed with the swirls of white embossing.
