<p>Here&#8217;s my card I created inspired by the theme of this month challenge using the <strong><a href="http://stamplorations.auctivacommerce.com/Trendy-Butterflies-2-Shery-Russ-Designs-P5676781.aspx">Trendy Butterflies 2</a></strong> and this time I pair it up with <strong><a href="http://stamplorations.auctivacommerce.com/Fond-Expressions-Shery-Russ-Designs-P5246974.aspx">Fond Expressions stamp set</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://stamplorations.auctivacommerce.com/Crazy-Double-Running-Stitch-Rectangle-Nesting-Dies-CUTplorations-P5623511.aspx" target="_blank">Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies</a></strong>.</p>

<p>I created my background using Imagine Crafts &#8211; FireWorks! Sprays (Angel Pink, Rose Bud, London Fog) that I sprayed and splashed on a canson watercolor paper. Then I run it through my die cutting machine with the largest size of the<strong> <a href="http://stamplorations.auctivacommerce.com/Crazy-Double-Running-Stitch-Rectangle-Nesting-Dies-CUTplorations-P5623511.aspx" target="_blank">Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies</a></strong>. And then  I added the panel with Tombow Xtreme adhesive.</p>
<p>After that, I stamped the butterflies from <strong><a href="http://stamplorations.auctivacommerce.com/Trendy-Butterflies-2-Shery-Russ-Designs-P5676781.aspx">Trendy Butterflies 2</a></strong> with Versafine Onyx Black ink pad. And then I stamped the sentiment from <strong><a href="http://stamplorations.auctivacommerce.com/Fond-Expressions-Shery-Russ-Designs-P5246974.aspx">Fond Expressions stamp set</a></strong> using Lollipop Ink Pad (Taylored Expressions) on a white cardstock and I cut it into a paper stripe with tail. I added on the card with 3D foam adhesive.</p>
<p>My card is done. I did not add any embellishment on it, becuase the spray itself already shiny <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/17.0.2/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
